Can you still buy these, or does anyone have any spare? I'm on about the wire that goes from the seat tilt lever down to the *door-side* catch.
Mine's snapped, repaired it once but it has since stretched and is now driving me mad!

Re: Seat catch wires
I used an old bicycle cable cable to do mine. You can put in a clamp to shorten it ?.

Re: Seat catch wires
I saw a set on ebay for a tenner (NOS) but to save money tried to mend it myself - got some bike brake cable and a few cable connectors and hey presto all replaced and working

Re: Seat catch wires
Thought I'd also add that I phoned CCI to see if they had any cables hanging around - you'd have thought they would have a set of knackered laser seats somewhere considering what they are... but they weren't really interested in helping me at all and just said no goodbye.
