Default 88-89 power window switch clip where do i get one??

I recently decided to replace my door speakers i noticed my window wasnt going up with out help so i figured id be able to mess with the window after fixing the speakers i took off the pass door panel unplugged the switch. 6 months later i diecide to just get a sticker and pop on the door panel again and reconnect the switch. While doing so i noticed i forgot to put the door handle rods back on so i had to remove the switch from the plasitc trimm first all the sudden ting then i watched as the clip fell into the grass next to me after it bounced off my rocker panel and landed never to be seen again. I had a buddy use a metal detector to try and locate it. Nothing all metal other then the clip so this is hopeless mind u it rained the day before i scanned but i looked the day i lost it and couldent find it so now my window switch hangs loosely the only blemish in the whole interior everything is mint besides a saggy headliner cloth. Any ideas or anyone who has a spare clip and would part with it would be greatly appreciated i would hate to have to use goop or something to hold it in place.

Window switches you can find on E-bay (whole sets) or The local junk yard. And commonly break down, (especially the drivers side). Also while the door panel apart. It pays to replace the clips on the door locking rods. Also commonly break apart. (there cheap, and easy to do. Available at auto parts stores) Beats replacing them later.
