Anyone recognise this seat recliner? I'm not sure, but I think it'll be British - Triumph or Jag possibly. I could do with a matching knob for the other side. I'm alright, but Mrs.M is getting a bit anti about catching her leg on the bare thread of the lever on her side.

As a temporary measure take the knob off your side and put it on hers 😉

Black is not a colour ! .... Its the absence of colour

As a solution, that's only marginally better than the other obvious one - let her drive

Would save a lot of earache until you source a replacement

That's great Vulgalour, thanks. It gives me a direction to head in, but the likelihood of finding something is probably less than if it was from a British vehicle.

Don't be too sure on that, Peugeot 404s have a pretty good following and France is littered with old car parts. Somewhere like leboncoin might help you out, as might marque specific forums and social media groups.

I knew I had seen them somewhere before. The mention of Corsair jogged the memory. Mk4 Zodiacs had them too. Thanks all.
