Climate control button diy gone wrong! Please help!

So I thought I would be clever and take apart the climate control buttons and paint them. I did so but they didn’t fit right again after and wouldn’t work properly. I took them apart again to see what was wrong and snapped the clip on one side! So annoyed! I see some on eBay but they are coming from Europe and would take a while to get here. Is there any better US based supplier? The price on eBay is $120 shipped. Thanks in advance!

I think I have a couple sets of brand new ClimaRepair toggles I'll sell for $45 shipped via USPS priority mail with a PayPal Friends and family payment.

If interested, send me an email to petza914@gmail.com and I'll send you some photos.
