rear seat cable

[jrthor2]

I just went to tyr taking the rear glass out of my Av that I just bought about 2 months ago for the first time, and ran into an issue, I could not get the rear seat on the passenger side to fold down.  I fiddled with it for 2 nights, and finally noticed that the cable that attaches to the seat part that you pull up and attaches to the seat back is broken.  Anyone know where I can get one?  Is this easy to install?

Thanks

2.? Remove the bolts (1) that retain the front riser (2) to the cushion frame.

4.? Remove the riser assembly from the seat frame.

2.? Connect the cable (1) to the riser assembly.

where can I get this part and any idea how much it costs?

Just an fyi, I was able to just get the cable that was broken for about $20.  Took about an hour to get it installed, the little bugger, but I got it working.

Thanks!

Nice job 

Thanks for the update, do you have the part number for members who may run into the same problem?

I assume it took so long because it was difficult to snake the cable through the cable housing?

Shoot, I threw out the order receipt and I didn't take notice as I was putting it in.

sorry.
