Does anyone make the spring for the key release collar?

As far as I can tell nobody makes these. You can buy the collars to convert a column shift to floor but nobody seems to sell the return spring.

Its not a standard spring. One end has a dog leg on it. Im going to the hardware store to find something close I can modify.
 
@MoparMike1974 How far did ya get? What did you end up doing? I'm in the same boat! I purchased the repro collar pieces (real nice I think) and painted using Herb's Interior paint (perfect match green), all ready to go back together - but I need that damn spring.

Yeah same, i didn’t know there was a spring, so mine is installed, and it just kinda flops around.
 
I made my own with some springs from the hardware store. Luckily I had an original to use as a pattern.
