+2S Interior Door Handle

Does anyone know where I can get the nylon connector block ( as per photo) that joins the rods from the interior door handle to the door lock?

Sussex Classics now closed for business, but other MGB parts suppliers should have them, or MG Owners Club site

The MGB part number for the connector is 37H 3549..

BTW, if the holes in the connector for the rods are intact and the problem is the ' clip' parts don't grip/are broken, this can be fixed with 2 small zip ties..

Cheers all, MGB Hive came back yesterday and they do have some though secondhand so have an option. The other option, thanks Tony is the tie wrap, worth looking into.

Thanks all.

I have mine tie wrapped, and although they work, they are sketchy. It is something I have always looked to replace but didn't realise you could get the individual block and not have to buy the whole handle. Thanks.

If they are rare, I wouldn't be surprised if someone hasn't designed / 3D printed the part.
