Default Window switch rocker replacment

I went to investigate today why my drivers window switch was not working in the down position and came across the fact that a small piece of the rocker was broken off (red circle) and should look like the adjacent rocker (green circle).



Now I cannot find any sources to purchase just the rocker part, let alone in grey. Does anyone have any hints to another Toyota model that would use the same style of rocker? or a source of rockers only?

Thanks

Maybe you can JB weld a small piece of metal or plastic in that space to simulate the piece that's missing.

That was actually my first thought. It's definitely worth a shot.
