local junkyard, ebay or craigslist perhaps. Just keep at it, eventually one will pop up. Can you repair it somehow?

I had the same problem with my 01 lid. I went to the dealer. I would have had to buy a whole new box to replace the lid. Pretty pricey. I used to build scale models of ships. I went to the local hobby store. The owner steered me away from the glues he had but sold me sheet plastic for reinforcement. He told me to go to home depot or lowes to purchase a specific type of epoxy. I think it was goop but I'm not sure. I'll check the garage. The previous owner had the lid recovered before I bought the truck. The lid must have cracked when he owned it. Now that I have reinforced it the lid is very strong. I can try to take some photos if you would like me too. The first thing you need to do is remove the lid from the box. Then remove the top of the lid from the frame beneath it. Epoxy pieces of reinforcement plastic styrene cut from s sheet bought at a local hobby store. When it is all dry spray paint the frame black with paint appropriate for the plastic. Reattach the lid cover to the frame and bolt back into the box. Let me know if you need the name of the epoxy. I made my repair about a year ago. Still strong to lean on. Better than new in my opinion. Steve M.
