Rear door hinges now worn and need replacing.

posted same question on a similar thread already running but it seems to have disappeared .

having priced around on web there seems to be a price difference between hinges for model discoveries but they look exactly the same.

so are all discovery rear door hinges interchangeable or not ??

cheers

As far as I can work out you cab no longer buy d1 rear door(boot) hinges.
You can get d2 ones that fit and do the job. All the ones yo use for sale are the same, ment for d2 but sold as d1.
Half way down this link should help you.
Discovery 1 Door Fittings at www.rimmerbros.co.uk

Hope this helps.

Yep, thank you - £10 cheaper than ones i had seen.

seen some td5 ones for £20 - different part number - not sure if they would fit or not, assume not.

waiting for undercoat paint to dry on both hinges (Rimmer - £85.20 )
it appears D1 & D2 = same but not compatible with others.
top coat and then on ??
