Question Gas Door Help

The switch inside the gas door has been pushed back (on the inside of the trunk). There is a small white circular piece with a black piece in the center. It looks like this "snaps" onto the opening behind the door and holds the pin/switch that holds the door shut and allows it to be opened.

Does anone have any experience with this or had this problem? Do I need to get a new white piece (or from a junk yard)?

Thanks!

How did you fix yours so it would stay manually closed? I've got no problem with that, but I don't know how ya did it.

Thanks

remove the remote popper assembly and remove the spring on the gas door itself
