Can I buy a replacement spring clip for a recessed ceiling light? ?

I broke one of the 2 reteining springs for a ceiling light, the springs that hold the round fitting into the hole in the ceiling. Can I buy a spring or do I have to buy a new fitting?

If you can get the details of the spring to a local spring maker, I'm sure they would make one for you.
However, the cost might be more than the replacement cost of actual unit.
Feel free to email me at gfowler AT hanson-springs.co.uk if you are stuck.
