The only noise I can think of when you insert the key is the steering column lock releasing, but that would be on the driver side of the dash. Any chance you could post a video/sound clip?

My experience has been that the dial knob that you use to scroll through/adjust settings gets all gummed up. Easiest just to replace it/the control panel.

SAAB 9-5 07 Aero door mirror change.. 4 wires insted of 2 ? what to do? PICS+
I don't see why not. Worst case is you'll have to do a little wiring repair if you ever decide to go back to auto dimming.

SAAB 9-5 07 Aero door mirror change.. 4 wires insted of 2 ? what to do? PICS+
Sorry, it wasn't showing the pictures when I looked at this thread before. Definitely looks like auto dim wiring but on our '04, it has a connector like the defroster does.

Load angle sensors (for Xenon headlamps) - Saab 9-5
Just sensors, maybe an hour, I'd probably say an hour and a half to two hours with sensors/extension harnesses if you end up needing those too.

Load angle sensors (for Xenon headlamps) - Saab 9-5
