So my DW was letting the blinds down and the large blind over the sofa came tumbling down on the end opposite the motor, I looked and low and behold a plastic piece that slips into the holder was laying on the sill in pieces. So does anyone know exactly what the parts are called and where I can find them?

Hey Bill,
If that part clips to the metal bracket that hold the little "Nib" on the end then yes. I xall it nib cause I don't know the correct term.
Thanks for the reply!

I have had my blinds down on my 2001 HD blinds, and my brackets go across the top so not sure how yours are held up but if I have a good part I can 3d print new ones. Also have a anemometer blade replacement that works unlike the original.

The issue is identifying which manufacturer of blinds. Yours are different than my MCD.
Are there any identifying marks or brands anywhere on the blinds?

@Richard, According to my build sheet they are called silhouette which is hunter douglas if I'm not mistaken, they look original too.
