So it's freezing cold here and I removed my door panel to have a dent pulled out. While reinstalling I snapped the plastic piece that holds the locking rod on the lock actuator. Wondering if anyone has an old one laying around they don't need? I'd hate to spend over $100 for a little plastic piece and I don't have a 3D printer to try to make one. This is on the right rear door (passenger)

I’ve replaced one but threw the old one away. FYI it sucks to replace. Maybe that one is better but the drivers one is a job.

Ah man. Been there. Broke a couple of those at the dealer when popping door panels off. It ain't hard. I looked high and low but I cannot find any.  I used to take  them off and save them when I turned a warranty latches in. Must have left them for the next guy when I retired.

I did the same exact thing.

I was able to find the plastic piece that broke and super glue it back together. It’s been holding for 8 months so far. I imagine you could just make the piece out of something else if you had to.

Tried super glue and it seemed great but snapped it off again. I may take a soldering iron and melt it together, nothing to lose at this point.
