Default Restoring a presentation box?

I picked up a beat up presentation box for an 8-3/8” that I want to restore in my spare time. It needs new felt but the plastic liner is in good shape. One of the latches is broken. Does anybody know if there are replacement latches available?

A few years ago, I was trying to restore a presentation box, and looked high and low, i.e., local hardware stores, internet suppliers, etc. for replacement latches. No luck. But perhaps the situation has changed since my unsuccessful search...
