Stripped Reclining lock on Passenger Seat

batmmannn · 05-12-2010, 11:26 PM

Did a search and found nothing on this. The passenger seat in my supra has a stripped position lock. The reclining function does not stay locked as it should. I figure someone maybe got laid in it and broke it or something. If you press down on the recliner lever hard it locks if not a slight lean back and the seat starts clicking back into a reclined position.

Has anyone any knowledge of the seat mechs and if this is a part that can be replaced?

Seats cost a lot I would rather fix the one I have.

Help if you can....Thanks

ps after I removed the seat I found a human tooth under it roots and all. How strange is that?
