You can get the part from a dealer. Try Max at FiveStar. The installer of my audio setup somehow broke mine and he ordered the part. Took a couple days to get but took me 5 minutes to replace.

Found parts at 5 star Ford $26.42 delivered. Think that seems a little high? Thats WITH goldmembership, Would have been about $40.00 without it. This Web site is really starting to pay off!! THANKS, LVC!! and 5 Star Ford. :Beer

the same thing just happened to me. the pots where the screws screw into like broke apart from old age i guess. I just took some larger screws and drilled them into the holes where the old ones were, looks fine. I searched the junkyard for 3 weeks until i gave up and did it this way. But just dont lose the spring and latch and your good.

My spring broke along with the plastic watchamacallit inside. so I decided to go the easy route and get it from ford.

You know how it is,it seems like you get one thing fixed and another thing breaks. :Bang But I kinda expect it the car is almost 12 years old with 135,000 miles.Time takes it's toll on everything.
