Default Part Identification **need help**

This piece is on the drivers side door and it has somehow broken off so every time I go to close my door it's rather annoying and sharp so I'd like to see if someone could help me. My car just hit 100,000 miles so everything seems to be breaking all it wants nothing major just little annoyances like trimwork and things of that nature I'm going to attach a picture if anybody can help me identify the part and tell me where to buy it online it would be greatly appreciated

Unfortunately it's part of the door trim panel so you have to replace the entire piece....about $1,400 from the dealer. You might want to check a local salvage yard.

Awesome! That's great news, lol.... so that piece doesn't pop out and isn't replaceable. I am guessing that I should probably superglue the piece back together since I still have the broken plastic?

Don't you have junk yards around?

Yes, of course but I was really hoping I could just go and order it through parts wholesaler or distributor online rather than having to go rip it out of a junkyard I work about 60 to 70 hours a week so funny time to do something like that is not practical for me plus I am not the most hands on person nor do I have the tools to be taking pieces and parts out like that.,

Usually buy the part and have my guy that is local that does all the work on my car install it and he probably wouldn't charge me but I'll have to check call the local junkyards

Get him to see if he can find one for you or just epoxy the broken piece back together and be done with it...might not look pretty but it wont cut or scratch your hand.

That sucks if you do have to get a whole door trim.
