    Question E85 manual soft top latch broken.

    Hey guys,
    Sorry if this is placed wrong or if I just don't know something... BUT I JUST JOINED THE Z$ CLUB!!! So, I have an '08 3.0si with a manual soft top. The latch piece bolted to the soft top seems to be broken(the part that allows the top to be latched in the open position)... looks like its made of plastic. While poking around the interwebs I have yet to find a part number for this so i can replace it. I will try to upload pics, but any help would be amazing! thank you in advance!
