Broken hinge on flapper on fridge door

Greetings all,

I have a 2018 High Country with the side by side refridgerator/freezer. The bottom hinge on the flapper broke. (that's what they call that little piece that slides shut between the two doors on the fridge) It's a little, kind of complex plastic three piece hinge. Has a sort of spring operated cam system that keeps the flapper in position when the door is open, and then slides closed when you close the door. Well this little white plastic piece cracked and the only way to fix it is to buy a new flapper....$500 +++ I called a 3D printer, but they want almost $250 to reproduce the thing. It's ridiculous.

Anyone aware of a used RV or Dometic parts outlet? Right now I have it kind of rigged up to work. I have to manually slide the flapper into place, but it works...just a pain in the butt every time you open both doors.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Matt
