[Wanted] Tailgate Handle Insert Bolt

Took the handle off this afternoon as the release isn't working and as expected the micro switch is broken. That is easy enough to source, as are the T30 headed M6 bolts. The brass inserts for these are currently waiting for the JB Weld to dry before it can go back onto the car.

Only 2 of the 3 nuts were in use, as one of the captive bolts had been sheared off. I was able to remove the broken end, but cannot find anything suitable to replace it with. Before I spend some time making something up does anyone know a part number (nothing on lrcat.com), or name for a suitable part?

The photos below show the broken insert next to good one and the hole it should be in.

They are a pain, but if it's only the one missing I would not bother about it, I have two missing on my handle, its been like that for year's and been ok.

Thanks Flack. My handle has been like that for at least 2 years, so like you said replacement isn't essential.

Regards,
Steve
