Driver's Side Seat Latch Broken!?

[angrydan]

Ok... this is a weird one... hopefully there is another solution besides replacing the whole seat...

Today I went to throw some bags in the backseat of the driver's side of my car. I pulled up on the handle to release the seat forward and heard a pop. Now, the handle moves freely and the seat doesn't budge. I'm assuming some $0.50 piece of plastic cracked in the mechanism or something.

Has anybody had this happen to them? Is there a way to fix it (other than replacing the whole seat?)
