WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Remove old sealant from the retainer channel.
Fetch Teroson Terodicht sealant, black (T242), part no. (16) 30 15 781.
Make the opening of the nozzle smaller with adhesive tape so that it is easier to reach the bottom of the channel.
