Phono Socket help

Hi, I've been looking all over the place for a product that i just cant seem to find. My 2 phono sockets snapped off the back of my device. I've attacked an image for you to look at. As you can see, the Metal phono case has 2 prongs that push into the back of my device & hold tight, the inside of the case has a red & white cap to determine which lead goes where. The black bits was inside & fixed onto the device which i presume to give extra stability which have snapped off. My phono lead plugs in & the centre rod push's onto 2 pins on my device which slide open & grip to create the connection.

I've been searching for the photo socket's themselves or fitted to a pcb box as I'm able to take apart to adapt to my device if need be, but I'm getting the impression this style is an old one that is not used much anymore.

If you could help me i would much appreciate it.

Yeah I have found some of those also but they wont do, the rectangle flat fold down part before the prong lifts it away from the device & isnt stable & im not 100% sure if the pre fixed centre rod will do the trick also. But yeah I've seen these type everywhere i search & not confident they will be secure enough as mine are.

Mine will still fit fine, just the black centre part that guide the Phono Lead into the hole on my device is broke & stops me from plugging them in & without it my lead dosnt stay in.

Ill upload a pic of how it should look with lead plugged in for a better idea :D gimi 2 mins & ill edit this post.

Here it is :D
