Angry THE TICKINGS DRIVING ME MENTAL!!!

Bit of a random challenge for the board but here goes. The history first...

Couple o months back my Scoob (MY93 Import) got broken into and nearly jacked. The thievin gypo b*****ds did a great job of
smashin the steerin column apart and gettin the ignition barrel out but couldnt get past the immobiliser. They ended up half
inchin the front o my stereo (couldnt get the rest out...amateurs!) all my cd's and a half empty bottle of aftershave?!?...freaks!!

Anyway insurance covered the repairs which wa lucky as there was apparently over a grands worth of damage! Took it down to the
designated garage an all was fine.......till i got it back....

Now for some reason my indicators dont automatically click off once youve turned past the apex of a corner, highly annoying as
youve got to manually click off the tick tocks everytime theyre used. Took it back and they said they thought it was an
'aftermarket' wheel and wasnt supposed to do that?!? I explained that it was the original (Nardi Torino) wheel with Subaru embossed on the bottom
just to bang the message home! and, o yeah, 'it worked fine before'.

This said they promised to get back to me when they got the parts in from subaru, meaning that when repairin it some clown left the tick
tock stopper bit off and its since been 'misplaced' . 2 weeks passed an no word so i gave em a bell was cheerily informed that they were
having problems sourcing the part, in that they couldnt...at all!! So they basically they said i had to source it myself and they'd pay
for it and fit it....which brings me here.

So my question is, if anyone has a spare tick tock stopper(no idea what the technical term is sorry) to sell to me, or knows where i can source the said
part from i'd probably cry with joy!

Please gents, your my only hope......

PS - Sorry if this is in the wrong section.

try grade A for parts, or API dont know if that part actually exists though. My wife had a similar problem 4 years ago but that was with a peugot 206 that had been involved in an accident we just messed around with the cowling and luckily that sorted it.
