I have a couple side lights that have a broken snap/clip/lock. Is there a vendor selling some kind of replacement lock to keep the door in place? The doors are nice except for the clip.

I have made the wire style,for myself. You have to solder them into the rim.

I've made some out of an old lawn mower recoil spring. You have to anneal it, bend it then re-temper. Took a few tries to get the temper right but they looked like originals.
