Default roof latch broken

my passenger roof latch had been playing up the past few months, it was getting jammed, and generally being hard to press. last night it got stuck and when i went to press it harder a bit fell off and now its buggered. apparently there is 2 screws, one fell out and is missing, while the other has also fallen out but i managed to recover it, also, i the button has also fallen off and another piece as well. i could probably put it together, but ill order a new one.

You might want to get the roof tightened up and realigned properly if it's not locking flush with the latches. Otherwise the same problem will occur over time on the new latch. This will also get rid of most squeaks and rattles you may have in the roof.
