headrest control button

Ok guys so I dropped my car off at the dealership the other day for service. Today I went to move my seat adjustments and noticed that they broke the headrest control button. It has way too much play in it and its just hangin there. How do I go about fixing it myself? Anyone have this problem?

+1 I plan on it but honestly, that place, If I could avoid it I wouldn't want touching my car again. They do more bad then good there. I might take it back to get the button fixed then the damn mirror will be broken, for example.
