Where can I buy spare parts?

I snapped the plastic (plastic!) off the headpiece of my gt-pro while trying to make it larger to string it left handed. 

Now I'm completely lost!

Don't know what you mean by "plastic".    Do you mean the rubber string retainer?

I mean this bit here where the high-e is supposed to go. Not the rubber bit.

That part is called a headpiece.  It's not plastic but rather made from an alloy metal.  Try headlessusa for a replacement.  Another alternative would be to keep this headpiece but use a string adapter... although that would require single-ball strings.

Thanks. Called headlessusa; they're not sure it'll work given the state of this headpiece. Headless usa doesn't have a replacement of that piece in left handed. Or, even, I think, right handed.

Looking at pictures close up it seems like Steinberger don't even manufacturer different headpieces for the left handed ones; they just adjust them. I don't ;know ho.

That Hohner headpiece has different dimensions, won't fit on a Spirit. I made this comparison with a JCustom headpiece, which is made for Steinbergers (Spirit and Music Yo):
