Unbelievably stupid question

On the side and rear of my Lance 850 is a small, spring-loaded clip type thing about 3 inches long and maybe an inch wide. Each one looks very functional and useful...but for what? I've seen them on fifth wheels too but I've never had a chance to ask anyone what they are.
Yeah. I'm a rank amateur at this.

    Ya gotta love newbies. Just remember...we were all there once.

    You guys rock. I just went out and tried them and yes, they're door flap holders for the compartments that swing upward.
    Heaps of thanks!
    I've had this thing less than a month and unfortunately haven't had it out yet so I've only played a bin with it in my driveway.

    It's probably the clip to hold open the storage doors that are hinged on the top of the door for batteries, dump valves, general storage, etc.? Allows them to stay open so you have two hands available to pull stuff out. Picture?
