If there are any old auto glass shops in your area you might check with them. The shop I worked at until '86 had a box of "saddles" as we called them, the piece that the pin is swedged into. A couple times a year we would pick up a bunch of vent assemblies from a local fleet and replace that part (its rivetted in) because their drivers had run the CB coax thru the vent and sprung or broken the pivot. If you have the old pivot pin, you could braze or wire weld it back in, just be sure you have it in the right position. If I remember right there is a flat spot on it that acts as a stop for the handle. You'll need to pull the glass to do this and do it on the glass channel side of the saddle. John
