Default Missing console door

Hey guys I'm new to the forum and have been an s2000 owner for about 2 months. I own a 2007 nfr s2000. The center door between the shifter and the elbow rest seems to be completely gone. I took apart the center console to see if it was somewhere in there but no luck. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement.

You know it slides back under the leatherette padding?

The door part you see does not slide at all.

-__- I hope you don't think I'm trolling, my door is stuck, it will not retract
I took it apart yesterday to see if I could get it unstuck with luck. I think I need the door with the retracting housing.

The door IS retracted, Just won't close. It seems to be stuck open. Could be something as simple as spilled Coke left to dry like glue or something jammed in there holding it open.

Pulled hard? Try tapping it closed with a padded rod and a hammer.

Alright so I went ahead and took the door mechanism off again and went with the idea it was stuck do to some soda spill from last owner.
I went ahead and soaked in some paint thinner and I am glad to report the door is functional once again

Next time just use water, paint thinner could have done harm to the finish. Water will just dissolve the sugar from the soda..

This is why beverages are to be banned in every S2000.
