  1. Hi All
    does anyone know where i can get a new front sliding door catch,i have allways had a drooping handle and replaced it with a second hand one i bought of ebay only to find it is worse than the one i removed,they tell me there is a spring inside that lets go,i have checked all the suppliers here in oz but no one seems to stock them

  2. I'd doubt if you'd get a new one. Can you not take the old one apart? Plenty of springs around!
     
  3. Hi Snotty,i have thought about that,its riveted together would have to drill them out or grind them off,it must be one of the few parts you cant buy new?
     
  4. That's a pain. Unfortunately stuff like this tends to be second hand only. Any good suppliers of used vdub stuff in Oz? There's a few in the UK, sure there must be some in your neck of the woods.
