Default center console lid latch

i have a 2001 dakota with buckets and center console. went out this morning and the lid wont stay down . it seems the latch on the lid broke cant figure out how it broke but it did . any1 have any ideas on how to get a replacement? its a rather large piece and most likely will cost a few bucks from the stealership.

Junk yard. See if you have a u pull it near you.Could probably get one for a buck there, just have to take it off yourself.

lol...

good luck letting the junk yard let you buy JUST the latch.. you will proably have to buy the whole console itself just for that peice.. Junk Yards are as bad as Stealerships...
