Center console lid

The button on my center console lid is broken. I thought it might just be missing a spring, so I pulled the button off and it in fact is, but one of the plastic arms on the underside of the button is completely broken off (it came this way when I bought the car). So I'm down one spring, the other is totally bent, and the button isn't in good shape.

I've searched around and can't seem to find the lid itself anywhere. There are lid covers all over ebay, but not the lid itself, or just the button. Anyone know where I could buy this part? It is extremely annoying when the lid won't stay in place.
