Default Need replacement door lock switch for 98 LS400

The switch mechanism for my passenger door lock switch broke the other day. The electronics didn't break, however, the plastic that allows the button to stay in place did. Annoying as this will probably be a $50+ replacement for a trivial part that broke.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement part (besides wrecking yards)? From looking at the component, the part number appears to be 124-0J87. A google search for this part number returned no hits.

Default Called the dealer on this part...

$79.15 for a replacement--ouch! Part number is 84930-50030.

Anyone know of aftermarket places that might sell this?

Default Quick fix...

I ended up fixing it by super-gluing a small segment of a paper clip onto the broken plastic piece. The paper clip section allowed the button to rock back and forth.

DO NOT SUPER GLUE THE BUTTON DIRECTLY TO THE SWITCH. YOU'LL PREVENT THE BUTTON FROM MOVING/ROCKING TO LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS.

Still would be nice to know of a vendor that sells these small parts individually...w/o buying the entire master control mechanism (door switch, window switch, wood panel, etc.)

Default door lock switch

this is why god invented ebay. i recently spent $40 (incl. shipping) for the master switch on the driver's side, which is just one big component for all the switches. worked perfectly.

Is any programming required to get the replacement switch to work or is it plug n play if I were to buy one off eBay?

Thanks

This switch? No reprogramming required. It's just a toggle.
