Thanks for the suggestion Ken - since my Greenbrier is off the road for
Winter - I already have the handle out of the door. My spring is fine, the
part the houses the spring is brokenclean off of the plate that is held by
2 screws to the door. In Clark's online catalog "USED" page #40, bottom of
the page, it is item #3 "ESCUTCHEON PLATE".

The one shown is from the 4th door. I'm looking for the 8th door.
