Rear seatback release knob; how to fix?
The driver's side knob that releases the seatback in our Baja is broken. By broken, I mean that it's free from the mechanism inside the seat that releases it. Passenger side still works fine. I can't see anything that's actually broken with the knob. How do I hook it back up to whatever it's come loose from? Thanks for any help.
Altered the title for better accuracy.
All I can find in the FSM I downloaded (page by page!!) from Subaru's tech website about this release mechanism is to remove it counterclockwise. To assemble it says to reverse removal procedure. So, sticking it in the hole and turning it clockwise is not really doing it. I'm sure I have to hook it somehow. Anyone ever had to do this?

Crap! It's broke...
I see now that I missed it; the knob appears to have a piece broken off at the bottom. Anyone ever tried to replace one of these?
