You are braver than most, certainly me, congrats!
Question: the cable to fold down the front seat broke.
Any idea where can I get a new one and how do I install it?
Many thanks. 1984 911 targa, btw.

no clue how to actually do it but i know it can be done. i just had both cables replaced in both of my 74-81 sport seats by my upholstery guy last summer.

First make sure it is not dislodged at the two levers:






If cable actually snapped, then get some loomed cable and route and crimp the ends.

Sign Up and search for my re-uplohstry Tutorial with full details of that component.

Cable re attached.

1979 911 SC Targa.... I have my pax side seat (both seats will not fold forward ... the driver's side recently failed also. ) ... the cable is connected... and when.i take up slack.the levera moves ... i just dont know how it connects to.the "wheel"/ reclining adjustment disc... Anybody have pix / diagram/ instructions.? Thanks. - Rob

MAY 2017 took pax seat out and re attached cable. Connecting clip on end.is a problrm. It's really a 2 man job to keep tension on cable and re attach, but i did it solo. Not recommended

I.would post photos here if i knew how!
