LHS suicide door lower hinge wanted

[chromo]

Hi Everybody,

I'm after a lower door hinge for the left hand suicide-style side door on my panel van. I don't think the campers came with a side door, so it's going to be a difficult one to find. I am in Australia, so I'll need any potential sellers to post to Oz for me. I can pay by paypal.

Unless anyone has any idea of how to straighten diecast aluminium without breaking it?

Thanks,
Mike.

you might be able to straighten it if you heat it and apply gentle pressure to ease it back slowly

Plentifull possible replacements on the web but gee whizz are they expensive? Boy racers have gotten hold of the idea and pushed the prices through the rafters maybe?

Comm-Don,

Could you please point me in the direction of the hinges you have found on the web? I can't seem to track them down.

Thanks!

Heya,
I just did a simple type into Google Chromo HAHA. This is just one place that i found, but there are a fair few offering pretty much the same thing at variable different prices.

Thanks for the link Comm-dom, but I'm after an original hinge, not an aftermarket unit. Can anyone else help?
