Can you buy a supercharger clutch magnet anywhere?

I've determined that the problem with my supercharger is the clutch magnet. Does anyone know where one can be purchased? I have found the coupling but no magnet anywhere? https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_In...-00-40-MBZ.htm
Any of you who have gone to a fixed pulley have a magnet that you would sell me?

Any help appreciated. I would hate to have to buy a supercharger just becasue of the magnet...

You can see the magnet in this video.

Have you tried to see if your local MB dealer sells the magnet seperately ?
A used supercharger is a pretty expensive. VRP sells clutch delete which is probablt cheapest way. LINK FOR CLUTCH DELTE https://www.vrpspeed.com/product/cdsp/
With clutch delete comes also some kind of annoying noise, you can probably find videos with clutch delete pulleys.

Changing that coupling is the bigger issue, Very hard to get a new one on without damaging it. Clutch delete would be the way to go. Lots of reviews of them on here, No issue with driveability

Considering that. I already have your stage 3 cooling, intake spacers and carbon fiber on the car! Would I need to have my tune updated with eurocharge? Currently have a 77m pulley on here. Is there other coding needed to stop it from throwing the mechanical failure code and esp codes? (or is this indicating more problems than just my clutch?)

Update

Turns out after picking my car up from the mechanic who I consulted for second look - I noticed that the actually pulley broke off of the back plate - and the belt is going around the bearing! (DTK Upgraded bearing at that) the "barrel" of the pulley was down below the motor. Im really surprised at this, I never would have guessed this would happen! I would have assumed if the pulley failed the belt would come off! This explains the mechanical failure - The magnet could pull the plate to the clutch but the plate is not attached to a pulley, and the bearing is just hanging out there spinning.

Now, I need a 77mm clutched pulley (new not used) who could ship that the fastest during a pandemic shutdown?

Thanks to you guys who had parts you were willing to share, After I change this pulley if i find further problems and need them I'll let you know. Grateful for the help.

Ive attached clips of my situation...

We are open and still shipping. Shoot us an email or message and we can get a pulley out to you!

Unfortunately with DTK parts you get what you pay for. They are using the wrong bearing, Not even close to enough meat left on the pulley.
