E36 cab seat repair - not flicking forward

[drtimwright 104]

Hey all,

With the great help of @Olaf (I think that's Andy's handle here) I managed to repair my E36 seat. Note that Andy and I found several different mechanisms for flicking the seat forward. There are gas struts, cables and strings, and (in my case) a metal thing that had slipped it's bracket.

Here is the metal thing:
