issue with shimano XT BL-M8100 brake lever....

so little trail accident and the reservoir housing and lever blade itself is fine, but shimano uses silly plastic guide pieces that cracked and i am missing a little plastic piece on the push rod...see pic

i can find replacement lever blade (which i don't need), but does anyone know if you can order the separate little plastic guide pieces?
Otherwise I have to order whole new brake lever! 🙁

I hate not being able to rebuild something that is perfectly fine except for a silly little plastic piece...

thanks!
 
If it doesn't show on the parts diagrams with a p/n chances are you can't buy it separately. I can't picture if the broken part is on the actual lever or the housing...leaning toward the latter, meaning you maybe better off buying the whole thing (maybe sourcing the part off a cheaper model but it may not be the same part)

Yeah. Looks like ill have to just get new lever and keep this for spare parts...

the plastic guide pieces fit into the body, not the lever and no part numbers on shimano diagrams 🙁
