When you say the slider is broken do you mean that the slider on the tray is broke, or do you mean the slider on the dash is broke?

The spot weld on mine broke on one side which made my the astray sit crooked in the dash. I put a cheap little vice grip on it behind the dash to hold it together. Last week, I heard the vice grip chirping behind the dash. It wore out (cheap china-made crap). I went to A-zone and bought another cheap china-made piece of crap vice grip and re-clamped it.
