Magura Louise spares?

Afternoon all, looking for some advice here.
I noticed my front brake lever (Magura Louise BAT) was loose and the braking had become spongy. Turns out the plastic 'mount' that holds the lever assembly and controls the axis it moves on has broken, and the whole brake is in danger of falling apart.
I'm struggling to find a spare through the usual channels (CRC, Wiggle, Google etc). Seems a shame to bin it, all for a piece of plastic - any suggestions?
the manual says there's a lever replacement kit, part number 0722 533 - I don't need all that, just the plastic bit.
Cheers!
PS here's a picture:

Your best bet is to give Magura UK a call. I think the number is 07773453681.
Spares are rather sparse in general though, and they have moved recently, so you may have a bit of a wait.And now you know, and knowing is half the battle

I found this for you http://www.bike-components.de/products/info/p16774_Kleinteilesatz-fuer-Louise-Hebel-.html
No need to speak German, you just order the part; I use bike-components-de for years, you can count on them; they have many Magura parts available.0 -
Good idea, they are a german company, so I suppose spares aren't as hard to find thereAnd now you know, and knowing is half the battle
