I am re-upholstering my sportseats at this moment and I found that all switches are corroded. the retainers for the bladder release were all broken but I superglued them and now looks fine again.

the switches I cleaned and found that the ones for the back recliner are really broken , the red resistor is broken from both and 1 switch is even melted :eyerole

Where can I order new switches ?? I checked the catalogs of the suppliers but could not find any.

The seat have never worked from when I bought the Vette 6 years ago.

anyone already experienced this problem ?
 
Corvette America is where I got my switches. Only place that had them BOTH at the time. They are two different switches and most places only carry the one for the bladder.
 
thanks, :upthumbs


I am thinking to replace the ones for lumbar and do the recliners in a later stage, since I do not really need the recliner because I am 6'3 long.

and because they are near $80 each.

Why don't you try a corvette salvage yard? It's cheaper than buying new parts. I use this one:
