Viking eco-stepper: plastic battery mount broken where prongs connect with battery

[Dave Thackeray]

Hiya.

I have this bike:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eco-Stepper-Folding-Electric-bike/dp/B00H448GCE?tag=22

The plastic battery mount casing over the rear wheel surrounds a couple of contacts on a carrier plate. And the plastic keeping the contacts in place has now snapped, making it impossible to connect the prongs to the battery once it's seated on the mount.

I'm about the most useless DIYer I know. I can't seem to locate any replacement parts that would help me fix it.

Does anyone have any ideas how I might get this fixed so the contacts sit securely?

Many thanks!

Parts probably no but a pic may help.

Other wise its a new case or mount or both.

I have identified the bit that's snapped. It's the plastic casing for the discharge plug.

Wondering whether to 3D print it. I don't suppose anyone's done this before?

i broke mine 5 years ago. Stuck it together with hot melt glue gun and amazingly it has held together after all this time. But i now slide battery slowly along its guide until i feel the prongs starting to engage and then give a final careful positive shove in. I really think it takes this two stage approach as the plastic holding the prongs are easily broken - especially with the screw hole in the middle, and the battery takes a bit of shove to engage.
