I'll post a picture soon but it is for a 2003 280da.
Need the plastic holder for the radio mike that mounts on the dash.
 
I think I have one... I will look around... If I find it, it is yours at the low cost of shipping....
 
My suggestion - do yourself a favor and replace it with velcro if possible. Mine broke as well and was starting to break the handset. I used a small piece of the heavy duty stuff and like it much better. Doesn't pop off when I bump it now.
 
I believe these are out of stock/end of manufacture. Many threads have covered this mic holder and they are nearly impossible to find. Your best bet is probably to use the velcro as Cincy suggested if you can't find one.

You may be able to buy the whole radio and get one on ebay. I have seen some go cheap.

If Rod can't find one for you, I will probably be upgrading my 215 soon and will keep you in mind.

I didn't find the holder on ebay but did find a source for the plastic radio covers so I bought one, as if I ever broke the old one, I'd be out of luck.

Tony, before you pay you may want to confirm dimensions with the seller. My neighbor has a 210 on his boat and I believe it is taller and less wide than the 215. The cover in the ad looks different than the one for my 215 but maybe they are selling one of each?
 
My mic fell out of the cradle one two many times and broke the PTT button off. I called Raymarine and even though it was discontinued their customer service found me one and shipped it to me at no cost. Now that's what I call service! You might want to give them a call, can't hurt.

I have not been able to get over the first hurdle with those people which is getting them to answer the phone.
 
Try a electronics place or the truck stops for a mic holder for a cb radio, same thing for holder
