Default 2001 Accord window regulator

2001 Accord here - usual problem, the right rear power window fell . . .

When I opened it up, I found that the motor and regulator are just fine, all that is wrong is the plastic slider block where the ball (on the end of the regulator arm) pops in has split, so the ball won't stay seated.

Honda tells me I need a whole new regulator because the 35 cent plastic slider block isn't available separately. And so does Dorman, Rock Auto, eBay, the busted part just isn't available (You're out of gas, you need a new car!)

Anyone have one of these? Better yet, anyone have one of these so I can measure it out and have some 3d printed?

Block is square with a socket in the center - the ball end looks like carburetor linkage on old cars (I'm showing my age, here!)

I've moved this to General Tech - please do not post questions like this in the DIY Section.


Do you have the pieces to the old one? Might be able to produce or epoxy the old one together.

Next option might be one from a bond yard?
