Broken Door Handle on a 88 GTU

Ok, so there is this whit clip on the back side of the door handle that broke on me today. Junk yards are becoming scarce with RX7's these days so I was hoping some of you guys could tell me off the top of your head what other car will have the similar handle clip.

Dorman makes all sorts of little fastener/hardware doohickies, maybe find something usable from them (all the big box auto stores carry Dorman- or HELP!- stuff).

You would think it would be universal clip used on most cars of the same period with hinged door handles.

Thanks for the info Hyperstar, I figured the clip was awfully specific for Dorman to carry.

seeing as 626,s either have a blown headgasket or bad trans you should be able to find it in the jyard all day long
