Re: 2012 Van Door Motor Circlip Goove

No, he's probably talking about one salvaged from a scrap yard. Usually, the groves are standard sizes based on the diameter of the shaft. If you know the diameter of the shaft, you can find out what e-clip or c-clip you need to use. Also, the depth and diameter of the groove could easily be measured with a pair of digital calipers.

Technical drawing of the Van Door from previous year's kit; I think the interfaces are the same for the ones they supplied last year:
