The button mechanism on one of our toilets broke a few weeks ago. Glued it but it failed again after a day. I swapped it with a good one from my ensuite because I knew the knack to get it to work reliably despite being broken. Its totally broken as of today though so I need a replacement. Can anyone identify it and recommend a place to get a replacement. Will I be able to buy just the button part mounted in the cistern lid or will I have to replace the whole lot of the cistern flusher?

Most plumbing suppliers will have the button as a spare part.
The flush valve is a wirquin type and the same button was also used on a few other types.
I definitely saw them in Plumb Merchants on Dominic St this week on a display on the counter.
