Door handle to carrier nut and bolt

[stephx5]

Hi Guys,

Has anyone needed to replace the bolt that fastens the door handle to the carrier assembly? I have called all the major suppliers and they no longer carry this $4.00 bolt. Mine was rusted on and I could get no grip because the head of the bolt was spinning freely in the handle so I had to cut it out now I cant find it anywhere.

Problem is its kind of a special bolt thin square head in order to clear the door when the handle is pulled. I'm kind of outta ideas so I thought i'd ask you guys...

Appreciate any help or ideas

Thanks
