I have a 2011 Worcester on which one of the drawer latches has broken, as shown in the attached photos.

I have searched online and in the AutoSleeper parts catalogue without success.  I need to find a solution to this as all the handles and latches are, of course, matching.  I am wondering if this problem has faced others who may have found a source for a new latch, or if not even to replace the whole handle assembly.

Any advice gratefully received, thank you.

I know you say you've looked but it looks very much like the one in the centre of this page from the AS spares list, .......

How right you are - and how embarrassing for me!  I have to confess that my focus was on looking for the latch rather than the whole handle.  I'll order one up.

Don't forget minimum postage is £5 (may be more now) so order something else to make it worth while.

The best way to find parts is to send an online request  to spares with your build No..

While you have the broken one off, it'll be a great opportunity to use STICKY STUFF REMOVER, google it, to remove the ex duct tape adhesive, always a sod to remove......
Sorry if sounding picky but it's always good to make a +ve from a -ve up!
