Broken Vista seat adjustment latch

2016 26he drivers seat. Plastic that attaches to the cable broke. We're on the road right now so probably won't be able to work on it till spring. Luckily it's in a good location for driving. Anybody have a clue where to get one? I'll check with my dealer when I get back to Michigan. Looks like it would have to come with the cable already attached. I have thought about replacing it with the one on the passenger seat.
Terry from Kalamazoo, on the road.☺

You absolutely can replace it with the one on the passenger seat. You can get one at any Winnebago dealer (they may have to order one if they don’t have it in stock).

As soon as I saw the plastic seat latches on my Vista, I thought "I'll be fixing one of these some day." I'm actually surprised I haven't heard of more of them breaking. Good luck and let us know how the replacement goes.

I recommend that you contact Winnebago parts department directly as you will get the part much faster. They will need your Serial or vin number. 641-585-6395. They are great to work with.

Please provide the part number when you locate it. I have to admit, I'm surprised one of mine has not broken yet...

Thanks!

DON'T go to Winnebago. If it's older they don't carry it anyway, and it will break again. Look on Amazon under recliner handles.
I got an exact replacement except it's made of metal. It came with a cable with the right end.

PLease link to the page where you found one exactly like to OP's broken latch. I just went through all 20 pages and didn't see a replacement for demkimterry's broken latch.

I'd start here. I can only see one side, and it's not much use for ME to look up the wrong parts.

I'd start here though.

Dentkimterry-

If it's a Flexsteel seat, then suppliers listed below (one already mentioned) may have what you need.

https://www.braddandhall.com/product...?idCategory=99
Seat Hardware, Glastop RV & Motorhome Furniture | Custom RV & Motorhome Furnishings | Pompano Beach FL
https://www.coachsupplydirect.com/rv...seating-parts/

I have no experience with any of these suppliers.
