Front (L) power window master switch cover

i was vacuuming my car this evening and inadvertently happened to place the vacuum cleaner nozzle on the front power window switch area. The suction caused a part of the cover over the master power window switch to get sucked (the one that you can click to deactivate control of windows from the other seats) - although the switch is still functioning fine it bothers me to have just have the cover over it. Does anyone know if the switch can be replaced and how much it would cost me?

Thanks!!

Thanks kibbles906 - I didn't know the cover could come off without breaking. Any pointers on taking the cover off would be helpful!

I'd be going through the vacuum bag/container right after it got sucked up. Hopefully this option is still available to you. The cover can probably be cleaned and reused with a spot of glue if necessary to keep it in place. It's a lot less trouble than buying a replacement switch and changing it out.
