Trunk release plastic button broken

Hi all,

After 18 years, this button decides to cease clinging on to the metal arm that releases the trunk.
Does anyone have a good place to buy one, and that preferably ships to Sweden?

Thanks for the links. Unfortunately, there's nothing like this. Just the denomination of this was work to find out, Internal Trunk Release Lever.
Nevermind, I'm used to the metal by now.

When mine broke off it made it easier to not accidently pop the gas filler door opener because it's just easier to feel which one is which now.

Hehe, yup, kind of an advantage, never the wrong lever again.

Yes, mine turned into the steel version a few years ago as well. Easier to find.

Steel lever here too since sometime before I picked up my 98 lol. Guess it's something we all just deal with.
