Default Need help with access panel latch

Hey everyone,
I have a 1993 Cig TG. This is the latch (obviously broken) for the battery switch's access panel located below the rear seat. I reached out to Phil at Lipship and he had nothing to offer, said he even called cigarette where they said that style latch and cover is well out of production...
I have checked all the stores; West Marine, etc... with no luck.

Anyone have any ideas where I can either find this latch or the entire replacement assembly ?

Thanks in advance.

Try Boatfix.com or Tres Martin. Just about everything in the old Cigs is made by Perko.

I'll see if I can find it.

36 pages of Perko stuff on the boatfix site and I didn't see that part. I did find this that looks like it could do the trick:

I can't stand that latch on my battery panel. It's a pain in the azz to get latched sometimes....I may switch over!

Oldschool,
that sure looks like it would work though, doesn't it? And is definitly the closest thing I have found yet.
Thanks SO much for the help, I really appreciate it!
