Hello Can! I am interested! FYI my car is missing EVERYTHING related to the flip panel. I would appreciate some pictures, THANK YOU very much.
 
Which part, if you are referring to the flip lid motor (which is part of the hinge, right side I think) I got that from Cam as well.
 
I need the mechanism the motor drives. I installed a new motor and broke the lift mechanism
 
The gear which is driven by the motor is a common source of failure. I believe replacement gears are available, just can't remember who sells them.
You might start with John Draxler at T*h*u*n*d*e*r*b*i*r*d R*a*n*c*h, if he doesn't carry it he can tell you who does.
