New Refractor Retaining Clip
Bought a piece of rigid strap at Lowe's today and made a replacement clip! The holes were already there, I just had to enlarge the one I used. Not sure what kind of the treatment the clip had (stainless, zinc plated, bare steel) so I painting it with gray enamel paint to help it resist rusting just in case it's not stainless. It also got a new screw, which is stainless, with a flat washer between the screw and clip and a rubber washer between the clip and door, to allow the clip to be rotated without loosening the screw.
