I had the same thing happen to mine. There is a little metal clip that is attached to the plastic that broke. I found a virtually new one on ebay for $80. but when it came the metal clip was missing. Fortunately, I have the metal clip from the previous one. However, I just haven't had the time to take it apart and install yet. But, on my old one, I fashioned my own little flat bracket that holds the orignal in place if not a little loose.
Anyway, try ebay, I've seen them there on several occasions, and just make sure to ask the seller if the plastic flange and the metal clip at the front are still attached.

The Overhead Console is fixed with 3 very sharp spring metal clips. Rectangular plastic 'tongues' in the Console moulding press into these.
I've seen an ingenious temporary fix carried out on one with a broken 'tongue' using Velcro which proved so effective it became a permanent fix!
