Couple ideas; one, how about a junkyard part?  Second, you can compare to the 
part on the other door for reinstallation.  Third, I can email you a .pdf 
file (need adobe acrobat to read it) or can generate some gif files from the 
family pictures cd, which shows the various parts (exploded diagram 
illustration 123-50) and part numbers.
