On climate control small levers that go side to side for temp adjustment and settings for climate control...they are sliding tabs...

I can probably glue it back on...just wondered if anyone broke theirs and if there is an alternative fix....

I was trying to picture what a "havoc ****" could be used for... Turn up the havoc setting, things are boring!

NO gluing here.
There are multi-filament fiberoptic cables fed into these for their illumination. They are removable, but you have to remove the unit and do it right. Pulling them off will break the tabs that hold them in their place. Do a Search (I think Dwayne may have it in his) and find how to properly remove the faceplate and slider *****.

Maybe you want an HVAC Slider

Go to this link for Dwayne's write up on how to remove the HVAC unit as well as how to repair the broken slider *****.

As Dwayne shows, you replace the broken sliders. Glue won't hold. They are inexpensive.
