Jazz:
Just curious, why need to change the whole seat, and not the railing ?

Same sentiment. Sometimes it pay to scrutinize them a bit. A seat is just a seat. If due to the accident some latch or stuff broke and the seat cannot sit securely on the railing or bracket, then just change that part la... changing the whole seat is expensive - alcantara seat.

Precisely, if able to claim insurance, then let it be, I mean what IF unable to claim ? Almost $900 for a seat is quite ex.

Even if u claim insurance, that $800 may also load your next year premium... so still bo hua to me.... but come to think of it... TCM may say that they dun sell that part alone, so need to change the whole assembly, in yr case, is the whole seat. Maybe u bring to outside workshop let other mechanic see see to get a 2nd or 3rd opinion.
sengkang:
The workshop have bought the parts from TCM & will do the repair tomorrow.
I am claiming 3rd party and I am sure I wont be charged becos I insisted they check on further 3rd party claim on related repairs.
TCM said that the seats joints catch is loosen as a result of the impact and there is no way to repair except change the parts affected.
I know alot of you are wondering, what the damage like in photos.
If you want I can send the photos in PM to yr email (File more than 200KB)
The lorry that hit me was actually a container truck without any load.
Based on bro vortex advise, i called my insurer and they told me to get the workshop to claim again. But the workshop told me that its not possible to make further claim anymore.
So I just leave it to them to sort it out among themselves.
I just want to get the repairs done.
