Help: How do I fix my trunk latch?

["dmc83_gullwing" <jasperkins@xxxx>]

I noticed the other day that my Trunk (engine cover) loop latch had 
fallen off, and was stuck in the release mechanism. After getting 
my wife to pull the trunk release, I was able to remove that eye 
hook from the release mechanism.

Now the problem I have found is that the plastic hole which holds 
the Eye Hook has worn down over time. I cleaned out the hole, but 
the eye hook no longer stays in. I tried to find a anchor of some 
sort, but I could not find one that fits. Has anyone ever had an 
issue like this? I tried even making the hole tighter with plumbers 
tape, but still the eye hook wont stay snug.

I need a good work-around to keep that eye hook in the hole. Any 
recommendations?

Thanks!
