Default 5.0 Engine boot retention tab (red)

So in the process of changing the spark plugs on my 2012 F150 5.0 I broke one of the red retention tabs. I noticed that they will come all the way out and go back in, where can I get jut the red tab? Everything else is fine. Thanks.
I've attached a picture of the broken one as well and a whole one.

If that is the tab from the ignition coil connector, you can buy a kit from Rockauto.com. It comes with a new connector, wire pigtail, connectors, and heat shrink.
