arm rest question

Somehow, I have lost my center arm rest magnet 'thingies' (not sure what to call them). Not the magnets on the lid, but the little metal strips that the lid magnets attach to at the base. Now my arm rest constantly lifts and gets in the way of shifting. Looking for parts, but can't seem to find them online. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks.

Here, why don't you do this? I think it would be cheaper to do it this way

Take out the magnets and go to a hardware store and ask them if they sell anything that looked like your old magnet holding strip that sticks on.

Go back and install ?
