Hello Stuart, I checked out the listing. These are the levers for the seats with the tilt forward mechanism located low down near the recliner knob. (there were two versions available). I am looking for the version with the tilt forward mechanism lever half way up the side of the seat. Great detective work though! Thanks for thinking about me!  ta, peter.

I will happily make them if we can get a sample to make a mould from. Sound's like a good little project.

I contacted Scheel some time ago (also looking for the same thing) - no luck. The guy I spoke to knew what I was talking about though, but he hadn't see any in 20 years. I see you have 2 options:- 1 - buy some crappy seats as they come up - you wil lbe buying them solely for the tlit lever. You can then re-sell them for the same amount. 2 - Broaden your horizon - whilst technically not correct, look for later model RS levers (try Ebay in UK too). I scored 2 that were still in a box for $30.

ok odd...i only got my seats not long ago, and looking at the pics i was thinking that mine didn't look the same, so today when i had the chance i snapped a quick pic of my levers...sorry for the crappy image as the iphone has no flash....(yet)  My other question is did the aussie RS come out with the tilt lever down the bottom just in front of the recliner wheel??? Cheers Bryan
