(Solved) Fuel door actuator pin/latch thing

[TheFixer]

So, someone stole my gas cap. They pryed open the fuel door snapping that little pin that pokes through when you lock the doors.

I found just the pin on the parts breakdowns.... but I can't seem to find where to buy it. The dealer sells the whole actuator thing for 97 bucks. Same at fcpeuro.

Anyone know where I can procure just the pin?

Thanks!

Can't believe how annoyingly hard it is to find the right bit for certain things. I thought searching for "fuel door lock pin" would be the obvious search inquiry. Nope.... door actuator cable. Google needs some sort of nomenclature cross reference translate to layman's term search function.
