Default Floppy Seat Module

Found that my driver’s seat module housing retention bosses were broken. Not sure if this is a common failure as I am new XK8 owner. The module would flop down and be dragged when the seat was moved forward and backward. Oh well, since the module functioned ok, I wanted to re-attach it quickly so I found a temporary repair using a couple of zip ties.


See the photo below. The tie straps loop under the steel bracket and around the module and it seems to be a fast and reversible fix.
