miata soft top frame parts

[chgladu3]

I'm sending this out after talking with Todd Baumgardner who turned me
on to this message board.
I was putting on a new top on my 1996 m-edition miata (for the second time,
the first lasted 8+ years) when I got stupid and broke the small plastic
guide for the soft top's tension cable that is riveted on to the metal top frame.

So that is what I'm looking to purchase, just the passenger side plastic guide.

Hopefully someone has a partial destroyed or damaged frame that still has this part intact.
OR maybe a complete or almost complete soft top frame that they are looking to part out or with.

Evidently I'm the only idiot who has ever broken this piece as even the pros at the seat and top shops
don't know how to get one of these. And Mazda only sells the complete top metal frame for about $900;
hopefully someone out there can help me out.
