TR6 door check straps

On my recently acquired '71 TR6, both doors have had the check straps
replaced with a screw-and-webbing affair which isn't quite tight/strong
enough to keep the doors from swinging too wide (and starting to crease).

It looks like the mount on the door itself is what failed (and was removed).
Anybody have suggestions as to the best way to go about repairing this?  Do
I need to make and weld a new mount?  I note that the checkstraps are 
available in the major catalogs, but it is not clear what to do about the
door mount.

Thanks,  Tom Goodwin
