Latch pin for seat - unobtainium?

Hi -

I just sold a Corbin seat to another member, because I bought a used Corbin Close. When he got it, he was surprised that it didn't come with the latch pin. But between the 3 seats, I only had 1 latch pin - so I assume that new seats come without the latch pin.

I just looked in my parts manual, but I don't see a separate latch pin. Can you buy them anywhere without buying the whole seat? Seems hard to believe they're not available...

Yes and you both have 3 seats each.
I have 3 seats too oddly enough, but they all must have pins as they all clip on ok.
There must be an ST seat pin mountain somewhere...

You guys stop messing with the laws of nature and feed the demon more seat pins!

Who's "Mike from EMS?" Is that Mike S. from Ireland who has the mirror springs? Perhaps a group buy may be in order?
