Mine just broke as well. It was 13 bucks at my local dealership. Not even really worth going to the junkyard. I simply used a 1/4in drive 8mm(I think) socket. With a 4 inch extension you can tuck it up nicely inside where the handle is and remove the bolt fairly easily....took me no more than 2 min.... Good luck....
