It is probably not an "in-stock" item and would have to be ordered. Sorry for your bad luck

Remember: There's always a trick too it and once you get the part off you'll figure it out. Take your time and don't rush.
I personally believe they are making the parts so they will break and you'll have to order the parts from them. I have a great relationship with my Service Manager so I can usually talk them in to replacing under warranty.
