Can't find anything on google so I'm asking youz guyz. Is there a rebuild kit for the Unilite? I have one that was part of a VW parts purchase, looks a little rough but definitely rebuildable for a D.D. or toy. My biggest issue is the wiring was cut just outside of the housing. I could solder on some new pieces but is there any point? Could the trigger be damaged by the heat generated with the soldering iron?
