Shimano BT-8036 Retaining clip

Hi, does anyone know whether you can buy the silver retaining clip as a spare part?

Photo below, mines ended up a bit mangled.

I'm not sure if it is possible to buy it as separate part, but you can easily unscrew it and gently bend it to adjust its shape (if it is not cracked) until it fits and works as expected. I had issues with mine and after few tries managed to fix it that way. Just be careful to not have it too tight with the lock mechanism when putting battery back to the frame, as rotating the key to release battery may be quite difficult afterwards.
