Here’s the part number 15291408

Try eBay or a parts yard

There are no GM dealerships in Arizona?

Drill out the old broken ball stud. They make a replacement stud that bolts into the hole.

I saw those studs on eBay.

I drilled out and replaced a couple on my HHRs. They were all on the hatch struts.

I don't know about the hood struts, but the hatch struts have a different size ball at each end. Make sure you measure the right ball diameter. I threaded the hole for the stud, or you can use a nut.

I got mine from this place:

The bracket is listed as obsolete.
