so after opening it up....and fixing it (forgot to take pix....sorry) heres the end result...i replaced the plastic piece with something that confirm wont break... a metal screw! thumbup.gif just screw it in to the spring inside only.......the rubber piece cant be fitted in...coz the screw too long and i dont have a shorter screw.
