Default 2000 A8 handbrake spring

the springs on the rear calipers that is for the hand brake have gone out when engaged they wont return. I called Audi dealer and they can't find this part any where in there system. This is a simple part but Audi dealers use etka and if it doesn't show up on there they have no clue what to do. I have a picture of the part if any one knows a part # for it or where I can get my hands on one. I own a Import dealership and we have a repair shop here and I have never had a problem ordering part before except for this A8. Thanks.

rayveedub (on this forum) is my goto parts guy, but there are a few others, too. Swing by the DIY section:

or even General Tech:
https://www.audiforums.com/forumid_233/tt.htm
and post your question there. The A8 section is usually one of the least visited area, because their aren't that many of us A8-O-philes around. But, since your is a parts question, I think you'll get more exposure in DIY or GT.
