Tosion bars in trunk bracket - Need bracket
My torsion bars in the trunk in the middle ride a plastic bracket which has a rail for each bar. The plastic clip broke and can't find part. 1995 Camry LE V6 200K. If you open the trunk and put you head in look all the way back you see the two torsion bars and in middle is the bracket. No luck with dealers or diagrams

Can't take a picture right now, but the has a double clip. The torsion bar coming from the right hand hinge snaps into the bottom clip. The torsion bar coming from the left hinge snaps into the top clip (at least on mine).

I just received the new torsion bar clip or support and it looks different from the original. All torsion bar clips exist for 1997 and up but not for below that year.
Trying to figure out how to make it work with the new one.
See picture. Newer one is larger piece. The smaller one pushes in a hole but does not hold tight and bars slip out. There may of been a plastic bolt on the end. Not sure.

Temporary Repair
Inserted the old torsion bar bracket to the trunk frame and pushed in torsion bars to channels. To ensure it does not pop off wrapped the bracket, torsion bars to trunk frame with a narrow hose clamp and screwed it tight.
Torsion bars do not rub against strap and lubricated torsion bar channels.
So far works fine but after driving I will see if the strap is still secure.
Even though this was not the part it did show me the manufacturer lubricated all channels with grease since torsion bars go back and forth. Mine may of broken since it had little grease.
