Lower steering column cover
 
I closed the door on my 84 C10 and heard a pop. I looked down and saw that one the lower steering column cover screws had finally worn out the plastic and popped. I know it's 36 year old plastic. Does anyone have one laying around or can you recommend a vendor that sells one that fits?
TIA!

The screw actually tightens into the metal, on the dash.

I guess it has just been enlarged over the years. The head of the screw should still be outside of the cover, correct?

I believe it is the black abs glue can be used to fix the panel if you have some.
