So about a decade ago, I got a set of Gamiviti gears/caps to fix my passenger seat, then later on fixed my driver's seat.
Passenger still works as it should, but the driver's side quit working a while ago.
It once got stuck while I was vacuuming and I had to unbolt the seat to line up the rails again in order to set it in the fully back position and I just left it there as Im the only one that drives her.
Anyways, I'm currently looking into relacing the seat leather, so I figured I'd order a new gear while I was at it.
Did a search and was surprised to see other gears are now available
Instead of just a bare plastic gear that has to be pressed onto a metal shaft, there's now a fully plastic gear and shaft as well as a solid brass gear and shaft
Has anyone here used these new style of gears?
I figure a brass gear might cause more damage to sumthin else if it were to ever bind up, but just curious on how they're working out
