For those interested you can view more on what nilza has done with the seat adjuster cams on this forum -

I hope others join in. I have my original seats out of the car because of wear on my cams, and the resultant seat on the flat the driver's side rests against. These wear out because people don't lean the seat back forward while turning the large knob. It grinds the piece down. That's what did mine in. So I'm on board.

I'm interested, how do we go about ordering a set?

Phil, are you after one or 2 sets ?

I've so far identified 9 sets (7 people wanting 1set and 1 person after 2 sets) ..... there is someone still to confirm they want 1 set so if they do that'll be 10 sets and if you're after 2 then we've 11 sets all up.

Bad time of year to progress things but thinking about sorting this out sooner than later.

Checked the For Sale rules and looks as though posting some info up and an EOI will be ok

I am looking for at least one set. I'll check this weekend and see if my spare (actually, original) passenger seat need them, too.

maybe I missed it, but what is the cost for a set shipped to the USA? Mine are in pretty good shape, but i'd like to keep a spare if they are within my budget.

I did a quick check with Australia Post freight calculator and indication is about USD20.00 packing & postage ...... so a rough guide to work with

[KahunaKombi]

Just to keep interested parties informed, I've sent some questions to nils and awaiting a response

Thanks for the update. I expect after the holidays there might be a little more interest.

So hard numbers where we currently sit.

We have 11 interested parties, to which we need to clarify whether they want 1 or 2 pairs of cams (the word "set" has been thrown around, I don't want people to think this is to suit both front seats) If we could please refer to them per seat (meaning 1 left cam and 1 right cam) that would be ace to save confusion.

I have a current quote for the manufacture of 10 seats worth. Equating to,

$110USD per seat + $30USD total postage, extra seats will not incur extra postage.

or $165 AU per seat + $12-20 AU total postage depending on location.



This i however dependent on committed purchases, I have at this point only 4 seats confirmed.

I think we will have to set a proposed date for manufacture that I would need numbers by, confirmed by perhaps a 50% deposit.


As to the question of reduction in price to numbers ordered, I have no doubt that the numbers would come down at each multiple of 10, but that is the best I can guess at this point.

For the purpose of clarification:

Each seat: $110 (2 pieces - 1 left and 1 right)
Shipping: $30

So two seats (4 pieces) would cost $250 shipped, correct?

Thanks for the update. I'm a week or two from determining whether I need one seat or two.
