I think you might need to get one from someone with a broken windshield. I could try to pry mine off, I have a PFL windshield in my FL A8 and thus am not using it.

Thank you for the offer but what I was needing was a new piece. After a number of failed attempts, I believe the OE piece has ended up polluted and too slick to adhere to the window.
BTW, I have been using Permatex 84101 as the bonding agent (anyone have a option?)

UV cure epoxy maybe. I'd rough up that spot on the glass and the button with some 220grit or similar. Get both parts very clean beforehand. I do not think the plastic has become too contaminated to glue unless you soaked it in engine oil or something.
