Thanks for your help.

I do not know what you mean by broken. I have just had mine apart to clean the filters and the self tapping screws just thread into holes in pillars that are molded to the housing. If the pillars are snapped off then you may have a problem as plastic is terrible to glue together and have it last. Molding epoxy putty around the broken area after roughening it up for the epoxy to get a grip may work. Fiber glass is another alternative.
If the threads are stripped then you can carefully add a little epoxy down the hole or a small sliver of wood that reaches the bottom of the hole and use this for the screw to engage.
