Sport Seat Hell

[Jehu]

wait how has it just started twisting?

Well. My driver's seat's base rear had stopped responding to the control. The front goes up and down normally but not the back so I can't change the elevation of the seat. I began by pulling the wrong cable. I actually pulled the cable operating the left seat back movement and discovering this put it back in but didn't get it in well enough,I didn't heat the collar just shoved the sheath in with brute force and it eventually popped out so yesterday I tried to refit that cable sheath properly and somehow the other side stopped responding so now the right side of the driver's seat is stuck in an unfavorably upright angle. I was having a hard time identifying which motor and cable handled the right seat back, I may have just been distracted by activity going on around me and couldn't concentrate on what I was trying to do so i figured if i saw a diagram or pictures pointing out which cable was which and which motor ran what functions i'd be able to work with out going through a process of elimination saving me time and aggravation. The descriptions i found identified the motors adequately and i shall soon attempt to cut off a bit more from the sheath on the right seat back cable. I dread discovering a stripped gear wheel as described in one of those articles, I need to drive the car and if the damned seat is practically bolt upright that won't be much fun.

Honestly I'm not sure you'd want them. They have more than a little curb rash though not all of it actually from hitting curbs mostly potholes. I haven't been able to polish them all winter,it just kept snowing and snowing and snowing and snowing and snowing and... sigh... snowing and snowing and snowing...lol.. and snowing.. so they're kind of yellowing in some places from God knows what. Plus I've had no less than FOUR straightenings done and i forget to which wheels. All are within usable tolerance presently but I'd hope there would be better available though i dare not offer them here for sale or this post will be deleted like the last one i just posted about my sub frame mounts.....(?????????)
