Trunk Lid Latch

I need to replace the trunk lid latch. It no longer trips the pull down motor so the trunk is open about an inch. Where can I find the part or part number for purchase. It looks like it can be easily replaced as there is only one torque screw holding the plastic latch in place. Thanks!
