The poor design nylon strap which supports my cupboard strap has broken.
I don't want to replace all 10 with metal stays so want a few of these as spares.
Any ideas what to Google for or where I can get them from . Thanks View attachment 79673received_2323977834531974.jpeg

Can't help you with sourcing, but I can see why it broke. You would need to replace it with one at least twice as long, with the lower end located well out towards the upper edge of the door and the upper end towards the top of the space, so as to reduce the force which broke it.

The drop-down locker lids in my Bavaria have stainless steel flexible wire restraints. These look like they'll last forever, and you can buy them as spares from SVB - https://www.svb24.com/en/bavaria-flap-holder-stainless-steel.html

If you want to buy more of the plastic ones, see here - https://camperinteriors.co.uk/products/sm06-westfalia-nylon-door-retaining-strap?variant=32925596303
These are the ones on the Bavaria site...........wire for cupboards.JPG

I made these up myself with some stainless cable about 1.5mm thick and crimped electrical eye terminals at the end
