Do a search for microwave oven parts,
There are other vendors for parts.

This would have been my suggestion too, if you hadn't beat me to it. I've done a number of repairs on assorted appliances around here, and we mostly end up getting parts from third-party vendors.
Your best bet is if you can find some sort of a repair manual for the unit (also often available from third-party vendors) and get the exact part numbers to search on.

Aw, crap!? I just called Kitchen Aid/Whirlpool parts, and no, they
don't stock any parts at all for my "countertop" microwave oven! It's
considered a throwaway item...
So I suppose I can either fiddle with the latch to try to keep the
timing of the door switches proper or just leave it as-is and hope the
fuse doesn't blow for a long time.? Regardless, slamming the door is
banned for life!? (Good luck with 2 teenage boys in the house)
Unless somebody has a better idea....
Thanks.

You will need to replace the plastic bracket that holds all of the
switches.? Or easier approach is to
get the whole interlock assembly.
Good luck sir.
