There must be something that can be poured into the matrix to seal it without clogging it up.That way you could possibly 'repair' it without spending hours dismantling the front of the interior.
Hi. Totally agree. Despite forking out for an expensive aftermarket one made with brass and copper its not a patch on my original Volvo one which is now sitting in the garage and if I win the lottery I am going to have it repaired and put back in the car!
