Broken Latch

Have a 2010 Montana Mountaineer and over the holidays a friend was here from down south and wanted to see the inside, so I opened her up and let him have a look around. Well it being in the 30's that day it was pretty cool inside and while he was inspecting the bedroom he tried to open one of the mirrored closet doors and broke the latch on one side. He felt awful but I told him not to worry, that I could come on this site and someone would know where I can get a new one. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

When you replace put a small rubber O Ring under the screw and under the latch it will give it some flex>

There is a new replacement latch available that is more flexible and less prone to snapping off like the clear ones. I don't know if this is the one that others have been using since it was discovered a few years ago, but it is similar:

If you're still under warranty you can get a replacement set from your dealer for free possibly. I did for mine.
