I have two broken pieces on my driver's side power seat track...

Any ideas? these parts don't appear to "normally" come off.. Bradded
and welded together..

I'm not a welder.. Do they have means to weld such small pieces
without taking the whole thing apart..(other than taking track off of
bottom of seat..) or am I off to the junk yard..?
Do they make asbestos shim stock to slip in between parts to protect
other parts..?
How much at Junk yard?
I see one on ebay that appears will end up costing winner $150 with
shipping....

A good weld shop can weld that easily enough. Wet cotton towels,
appropriately placed, will provide enough protection. Done right, it'll be
stronger than new.
