    The plastic handle on both of my seat backs has broken off. Is there a better after market one I can buy, maybe something metal instead of this cheap plastic?

    I'm sorry to hear that tried calling the dealer?

    Also good to see another H-town member!

    I would also be interested in a more durable solution. I just broke the one on the driver's seat, and a lil' super glue and tape and it's a temp fix. I'd like a long term fix...

    I have the same problem. Daughter broke it the other day and I have not checked with the dealer yet. Would rather buy one online or a nice billet unit.

    If you are under 3 years / 36000 miles it is under warranty.
