If it's a two piece VSS (plastic top half, metal bottom) you can use the top half from a D-series, automatic or manual.

x2

I've had to do it twice for my B16.

Don't know if the bottom half is the same between the two though. Never compared them.

I know even D-series automatic and manual VSSes use a different lower half, not sure if the manual D-series lower half is the same a D-series though (I doubt it)

I wouldn't go with JB weld here. small piece of thin flat steel cut like a triangle to overlap whatever part of the original holdown tab is left with a hold drilled in it for the bolt should work though.

that will be good but i bet it's hard to make 1? or should i put the broke tab in to see if it can hold?
