Is anyone reproducing the cable or other parts for the Swivel seats? I would like to make mine operate automatically. I thought for sure someone was making the cables but I cannot find them now. Also any tips for lubricating these things so they turn more easily?

Thanks,
Garrett

Should be in here some where.

Somebody figured out that it would be impossible to grip the seat with your butt and stay on the seat if the door opened going around the outside of a corner, and the connections were left dis-connected for the sake of safety very early on. Bet it was a big thing to have working on the show cars, though.

Smitty, a member here makes replacement cables for them. I think his handle is matador440 on the forum.
