Have you broken the metal structure ,or just the plastic connectors that join it to the chassis ?

I just took a look and it seems that it is, just the plastic tensioners that connect it to the chassis that are broken. Thats good news isn't it? :)

You could make a cheap replacement, or buy one of the cheapies we've made  ;D

Which one you need depends on the part you broken;

Alternatively, is a creative bodge not possible with some superglue and cable ties ?
