300DT Seat adjust pulls?

OK..., more precisely, the plastic "loops" that you pull on to adjust the seat position.

Yes, mine are broken. Now you have to pull on the thin metal piece with broken plastic stubs.

So...., anyone come up with a good fix for this problem?

Every car I've seen in the yards has the same problem. Plastic gets brittle with age and breaks off in your hand while trying to adjust the seat.

Seems like there should be something that you can screw through the two holes in the metal bracket, visible after removing the plastic remnants from the end of the bracket.

Anyone???

Can't say I've had that problem, but since you do... Mercedes Source. FastLane might also have them...
