Brush Q



Having just BLOWN UP a 100 watt soldering gun immediately prior to forcibly
dismantling a rectifier/brush assembly, it 'appears' the brushes have a
pressed collar/rivet like device under the solder joint. Either that or the
solder is something phenmenol, with a melt point in the stratospherics. Any
ideas?

BTW, the 'correct' Audi brushes are 049 903 515C, at $3.83 a set via my
local ripoff Audi dealer... The entire rectifier assembly including brushes
is an 068 903 803B, around 54.00.
