Tim;
Look in your FLAPS. I purchased a variety pack of throttle type return
springs for a couple bucks. Each spring had the coil portion in the
middle with the wire continuing straight out for six to eight inches.
This allows you to cut and bend as to place the hook portion where you
need it.
Drive Safely & Good Luck
