The quality of the pull mechanism is laughable - there is a wire which goes
into a cheap plastic box and engages into a slider inside. From the other end of the slider there are two wires coming out. The problem is that the wires engage into the slider by a push fit, and wear causes them to pop out. I cut the a hatch into the plastic box , made a slider out of a bit of scrap metal properly crimping it onto all 3 wires, and closed and braced the plastic box with ties and a bit of sheet metal. It has lasted 3 years so far, which is longer than the original did. Dave Milne, Scotland '91 Grand Wagoneer, '99 TJ "Paw" > wrote in message ... > har!
