Any idea where I might find replacement letterbox flap springs? ?

Sorry if I'm late with this suggestion. I take it that the leterbox is flapping? I had the same problem. uPVC door. I found that the inside flap is the same as the outside flap. I just swopped them. (You'll have to take off the soft 'insulation' part from the outside one and glue it to the inside one before you switch them). Problem solved, no more noise from flapping.

Did anything help as I have the same problem. Anglian said I should try B & Q but they couldn't help and as you, I don't want to buy a whole letterbox just for the sake of a small spring.

I have a similar problem. A DIY shop suggested buying an old fashioned mouse trap and adapting the spring from that. I haven't tried it yet.

You could try a double glazing shop but doubt it it's something they just don't keep as the turn over must be 1 every 10yrs and many different types, you will have to resolve and buy the full unit.
