I had the same thing happen to one of mine. Sending it to Yaesu was the
best option based on a conversation with their repair shop. Not sure
what the cost of the part was, but total cost of the repair was well
under $100.
IIRC, they were happy to sell me the part, but noted that repair might
be best accomplished at Yaesu, because there could be further
complications with such damage that might require more than a simple R&R.
