Default Driver's side rear door latch upper rod plastic part - what is that called ?

I'm speaking of the plastic part that holds the rod in place. Mine is busticated and I have to manually connect it every few drives if I want to open the door...

Thanks!

Thanks but my question remains. The drawing appearscomprehensive however it doesn't seem to show the little plastic 'keeper' that holds the rod to the upper latch. Or if it does, it sure isn't ibviois tp me...

I highly doubt you are going to find that one itty bitty piece for sale anywhere.(except a junkyard). I bet you anything they sell it as an entire latch assembly.

I ended up using a few zip ties when mine broke 2 years ago. Still holding.
