Dual CS 5000 Part?

[Chip - HP]

A friend of mine has a Dual CS 5000 that he loves ... but a plastic part (see photo) that interfaces with the On/Off mechanism has broken ... he has asked me to help try to find the part ... I know nothing about fixing turntables but have a half dozen or so 12xx series dual turntables ... does anyone know if the part in the picture is common to any other Dual turntables?

There are some places that specialized in fixing Dual turntables, or you may try to fix the part yourself. Try here: http://www.fixmydual.com/

Hello,
some time ago, as I was looking for replacement parts for my 1224 Dual and I was pointed to http://www.all-electronics.com/ that is a canada distributor for Dual and gets all spare parts directly from Dual Germany (for some unknown reason Dual Germany does not mess with those requests)...

Thanks ... while I am not qualified to try and fix the turntable, my friend is ... if he can locate the part ...

If Adam doesn't have the part, I'll bet you can fabricate it out of a piece of sheet aluminum.
