By "all ****ed up" do you mean it just doesn't work or is beyond repair?

Mine didn't work when I first got my car, so I took it out and took it apart, cleaned the connectors on the insided, super glued the cap back on the spring thing inside and it works now. You could try fixing it if it just doesn't work.

Clean the connectors inside. Use a soldering iron to disassemble and reassemble the plastic
