[VAC] Cast Aluminum Door Handles



I have a '74 Trade Wind that has the cast aluminum interior handle.  Due to
useage by people who weren't overly familiar with the trailer's
idiosyncracies when closing the door from the inside, the handle has come
off the shaft and the set screw has been lost.  We have had to resort to
using a pair of vice grips on the interior.  Does anyone know where I can
obtain the proper set screw replacement.  I don't want to try and replace it
with something I'm not sure of for fear of stripping the threads in the
handle.  A new replacement would be preferred, but being that old I'm not
sure they're available.  I had a number that Terry Tyler posted back in
February, but I called it and it is not working (Oasis RV in Tucson @
800-658-1563).  Any suggestions?
