Help! I need help from someone who would be willing to help me source some parts. The reason being is that Holden can no longer source these particular parts for my Astra F.
The first part I need is simply the retainer and bolt that holds the car battery down on to the tray.
The second part I need is part of the drivers door deadlock mechanism. My door look recently broke as can be seen from the following picture. The Part on the right is the new part:

However, when I was pulling this mechanism apart, this little tiny cylindrical roller type bearing fell out. No more than a few mm long and a few mm in diametre. Tiny little thing it is. Do you think I can find the bloody thing! No way...but I need it! Holden don't have a part number for it so can no longer get it although it does apear on their schematic pictures. So my only chance is wreckers. So far, with the ones I've tried in Perth, no luck. Most have had the door lock already taken out.
I've still got all the other bits and pieces.

Can anybody help me out??? I'm rather desperate as I have not drivers side door lock at the moment so I can't leave my car anywhere otherwise some fool will go through it. I'm willing to pay for all the bits and postage etc as would be expected. Does anyone know of a good Holden wrecker in their area that may carry the bits I'm after. If I have to I will pay for the whole door handle assembly to make it worth their while, barrel, backing plate, etc. Bloody tearing my hair out as I'm terrified to leave my car at work with no door lock or handle in it. It simply is a case of stick ur finger in the hole and ur inside the car.
Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
