Mend Flap Upvc Door

Spring tensioner on letterbox flap?

My letter box is fitted to a Upvc door but the external flap tensioner has broken. (It consists of two plastc rods that slide into the top of the flap (one at each side both have a square at the far end) When fitting the tensioners you slighty twist them in on direction to gain the specified tension.
Do you know where I can obtain these rods as a spare part? Thanks.

I have seen these for sale on Handles & Hinges website, not sure how you would fit them though.

I mended mine with two screws and some blueback and it probably won't last long but at least I didn't need to buy a new one.
