Hi, the metal piece is broken where the pin sets to allow the window to tilt. My preference would be to buy the whole unit complete ..... otherwise ... how would I remove this to replace just the pivot metal piece ?? Thank you

We don't sell this coil balance assembly complete, unfortunately, but we do sell the pivot shoe. That would be our 15-177. Looking at your photo, that seems to be the only thing that broke. You can reuse your springs and covers without issue.
