This sliding thing I have taken for granted got a little jammed up and when I pulled the door closed bent all to hell and back - of course I was at the run-up area.  Reached over and after some bending from the pilot seat I got the door to close.  Opening the door at my destination was embarrassing, it snagged on my paper thin interior paneling (that I of course just resurfaced) and I had to push it open hard enough to cause a new crack. SMH.

Anyway, I don't want to mess around with a used hold open assembly if I don't have to - does anyone make a substitute? If not does anyone know of a someone who sells them in decent shape or any recommendations on what new technology to replace this with?

THANKS!
