Headrest adjustment knob

The one on the door panel for the driver's side busted the other day. At least I am assuming because it is not there anymore. I am betting this is going to have a high Mercedes Tax.... Any idea of what it takes to replace it?

Not very difficult. You just have to be careful with the ribbon connector in the door panel.
