w202 parking pedal broken

[triple h]

hi folks, i've got a 1995 c180, had the handbrake warning light staying on and warning sound when driving, checked the fluid which was fine so went to my local non mb garage and they found near the top of the pedal where the brake switch is located a metal part had broken.

just wondered if anyone has had this happen as the garage said they hadn't seen that part break before

does anyone know if it's expensive to fix/replace that part?

many thanks in advance for your replies

got a new handbrake pedal from MB for £128 my local garage says it'll take then a couple of hours to fit
