About this part

I've made this part for a friend who bought a set of Recaro seats in his Passat, I think they were the Audi A6 Recaros. Anyway, the lumbar support was broken so I 3D printed this piece out of ABS to go inside the seat and fix the problem. It worked fine but my friend said that after a time the lumbar support stopped working. Maybe the part snapped or maybe the wire came free, we'll never know because he sold the seats.... :(

Printing:
Use ABS. Infill should be at least 20% fast honeycomb, but rectilinear works as well. I used black ABS, but the color doesn't matter.
