Got the new seats bolted up to fit a couple of weeks ago.

I finished up the hinges this weekend.

Pic 1 shows the lower door crack after I ground it out a bit.

Pic 2 shows the weld after grounding down a bit.

Pic 3 shows the hinges after getting the bushings and pins back in and a bit of paint. I got the set from Napa (#675-5157) but I used the brass inserts from SouthBoston with the pins from the Napa set. The SouthBoston brass inserts are 9mm OD and fit the pig hinges with just a small amount of filing. The Napa bushings are 10mm OD and will need to be drilled out. I drilled out a set with a 10.3mm bit, which made the napa bushing a little loose, but I used them anyway for the first one. I also filed down a bit off the diameter from top of the pin so it would fit without cutting off the end.

Pic 4 shows the southboston bushing on the left and the Napa bushing on the right, and you can see the skosh difference in OD diameters.
