Can someone give me an insight of how you change the plastic plunger? If I open the latch it comes close to releasing it, I can try to pry but afraid of breaking it.
Dave  The broken one is on the right. |

I take the end off, pry the arms away from the body slightly, activate the mechanism as if opening the door and pull the plastic piece off.
I use a pair of channel locks to bend the arms back into place. Don't need to pry the arms away from the body a whole lot so as to avoid breaking them. |

AND when we made this part originally we side cut the round buttons to make it even easier to install. |
