Hi guys on my 66 Ghia I have a slotted die cast stud that is the centre pin of the side window winder mechanism. It was obviously made of a soft metal and has distorted to the point of nearly breaking in 2. Are these replaceable? Or do have to get another from a donor vehicle and hammer it in as best you can? Appreciate any advice on this as it does not look like a quick fix?
Thanks Russell
