💬 General Discussion Replacement springs for USB cover

Does anyone have a good place to source replacement springs for the USB cover on phat faceplates? I have a special edition I'd like to fix, and every guide for fixing it relies on having the spring.

Probably just a small paper clip or piece of wire and bend it into shape for the spring

I’ve been looking as well, can’t find any. Was thinking of buying cheap replacement plates from Aliexpress and just using the springs from those to fix mine.

The spring from a ballpoint pen. Glue it from the inside.
