temperature sensor hook broke
Hi guys,
Sad to say, I rear-ended a camry(I'm sorry Toyota!) yesterday. Not much damage on the bumper except for scraped paint. I'm in no hurry to fix it since I have enough rock chips from highway driving.
The only thing I found broken was the white hook that holds the sensor in place. Dealership said I have to pay $30 CAD for the sensor itself with the hook. Any alternatives?
I attached a photo from Lexmex:

I'm not totally worried about the sensor at all, it's not in the hundreds of dollars to replace. The only thing I'm worried is the two wires. I don't want that to suddenly break on me, then even a new sensor would not fix the problem anymore.
I currently have it tied up to the left plastic arm in the bumper with velcro as I can't find a way to put the zip ties around the metal beam there(sorry for the poor description, quite tired already)
