Broken lug on KO Box

[Gavthesparky]

How please was I to find that the plasterer had bent back the fixed lug on my KO box. On easing it forward the inevitable happened and it broke off. Does anybody have a good sound solution for this without having to try and replace the whole box.

Drill through the back of it, tap a thread and use a long faceplate screw or extension and hey presto
