DS43 cabin steps - engine cover, retaining bolt replacement

[manaia]

Hi all,
One of the bolts that holds the cabin steps in place has broken in two - does anyone know the source or name of these fittings?
It appears the bolt has been pressing on the bottom of the hole in the cabin side and it has eventually succumbed and broken at the threaded part.
Thanks, Steve

I have the SO40 parts catalog for the defunct jeanneauparts site. The part looks the same and I think in the catalog it is called "Chromed spring bolt". I can't be 100% certain that is the part as there is no drawing for it, but it is a part from the engine cover.

There is no part number or any other information.

These have been used by Jeanneau in many models, so you should be able to get spares from your dealer OK try:
