Parking brake release broke off. What's the procedure for replacing it?

92 500SL. Either 20yo plastic gets brittle (and yeah, it's obviously been baked in the sun more than a sedan), or Ward was a little too hard on "the beaver."

At any rate, toenail clippers are the perfect size for pulling it loose, but they don't look right, and I'd prefer not to have to leave them in the car.

I see a butterly-type metal prong, and a single screw on the dash carpet below it. Give me the quick n dirty on how to swap.
