Default Removable Back Windshield Handles

I decided to take my T-tops out along with the back windshield today for the summer. No problem with the T-tops but the back windshield levers were hard to move. I popped off the tee handle on one side. it looks like pot metal. I just unscrewed the lever and removed the windshield. I tried to find one of these in the catalogs I have but to no avail. Does anyone know where I can get a complete new lever assembly. I have a 68.

If it matters to you, the ones that Wilcox sell (and everyone else too), are correct for 69-72's, but are a replacement for a 68. Where the 69-72 latches are rounded on 2 corners and squared off on 2 of them, the 68's were originally squared off on all 4 corners.

The 69-72's will work fine on a 68, but they do look a little different. The 68's have not been repo-ed.
