Bathroom door latch

Does anyone here know of a common replacement for the bathroom door latch ? Mine was jamed in the locked position, with no one inside, ended up knocking it off to get in. Ya, I tried that also.

I broke mine shortly after buying the RV.  The Mothership has them in stock and will sell you one. I found the price to be reasonable. Remember they do not take credit cards.

Thanks for the replies.
 Yep, I COULD have called the "Mothership", but personally, it is a PITA since they don't do CC's, mail a check, wait for them to get the check, then mail the part. I COULD also have searched the net and found the latch at several places, cheaper than you link. Amazon included, with overnight shipping here - http://www.amazon.com/BRD-10811-Privacy-Latch/dp/B003BVZ14A . But I chose using this forum, which I believe allows everyone to share their knowledge, which you did, and I thank you for showing your intellect.

This latch will work but two comments: 1) You will have to drill out the holes a little.  Unfortunately, they are not a perfect fit.  2)  The one LD supplies is much easier to open with the back of your hand.  This one requires precisely pushing the button.
 I've installed this version, but to do it again, I would have written the check to LD and waited!
