    OK I am about to give up...The spring on my door handle broke (85 Mondial)and I tried and tried to reman a spring for the handle, I even used a spring off my $60 pair of pliers, but the door is so sensitive that it only works once in awhile. I have had the handle on and off 3 times and every time it works and after I put it back together and drive it, it doesn't work right.

    A. Does anyone make a spring for this? It looks like a chromed spring form a clothes pin

    B. If not, does anyone know where I might get a new one?

    Thanks

    May want to check the door handle off 70s - 80s Alfa Romeo Spiders as they are near identical. There are several Alfa parts places that may carry these.
    I know GT Auto Parts in AZ is also parting out some Mondials.

    The Fiat 124 has the same door handles. You should be able to find one out of a wrecked Mondial if it makes you feel better.

    Thank you too,

    just found a couple of sets of Alfa and Fiat salvage door handles on ebay for a few bucks, will try to get a spring of one of those handles.
