Can anyone tell me how I can tell one rear hinge from another. I have seen them on ebay marked up L & R, but mine have no marks on them! Took them off the van before the respray but want to get them right first time if I can so I dont damage the new paint. By the way, followed the painting & finishing guide from the Forum & cant believe the finish I got even though it was done outside, on a cold day, with the wind blowing a hoolie!

The only other problem you have is that they are different top and bottom. I just tried them both ways, and found that one way the doors opened much better than the other.

Thanks Mate. They all look a bit samey to me! Sorry it's taken so long to reply. For some reason I thought getting broadband from Sky would be a good idea. Turned out it not!!!
