I have several broken plastic keepers on my external compartment doors.  Coach is a 1998 Marquis.  Does anyone know of a source for replacement?

Try the same suppliers that I suggested for the door latch.

I found some over at Rocky Mountain RV in Albuquerque.  http://www.rmrv.com/.  Seems like a fairly universal part which was easy to install.  They suggested using soap on the plastic parts once in awhile.  I have a bar of soap dedicated to those puppies.

I don't know what a plastic keeper is, but I have a new unused chrome compartment lock.  I had replaced all black ones with chrome and somehow managed to get an extra.  I no longer have the 99 Patriot Thunder, but have the lock.  It is in AZ (in a storage shed, but could be retrieved).  I am in Corrales, NM (at home).

http://www.tropicfast.com/index.htm I have gotten some of the uncommon hardware items from Tropic Fastners They have several warehouses. Thing like the door catch (friction keepers etc) are easily supplied by them. I found them by googling the brand of the item I needed replaced. They are wholsale only so you need someone with a sales tax number and they do have a minimum order size which was $25 the last time I bought something.
