Slam panel catch spring

Recommended Posts

In my attempts to spruce up my slam panel and the catch I've managed to lose the spring (probably buried in my garage somewhere). Does anyone know the dimensions of it so I can try and buy a replacement spring?

It's a cheap gauge that never properly zeros itself, though it's as near as makes no difference

Many thanks for your precision there! Hopefully I can find something suitable.

Is it the knob part of the safety spring you are after ?

It's the spring that pulls the catch into place against the pull of the cable.

Will have a look for it 

 

I bought it 10 years ago from a dealer in Belgium so might be not a 5 minute source
