Post by awright »

Talking to a mate he reckons they might not be swappable but I have heard of it. Anyone got any tricks or comments?

the hinges are a different type one is a simple top hinge and the other is a counterweight and concealed hinge setup. So- has anyone made one fit the other and how.

for me it would be a concealed hinge bonnet on a rangie with exposed hinges.

I hope that makes sense

you at least have to swap the scuttle panel, and probably the full hinge assembly as well....
