I'm looking for a rhs door hinge for a Series 5 Alpine but finding it difficult. Has anyone any hinges or knows where to get them?

There is one in a breakers yard near me. There's not much left and the doors are gone but i'll have a look next time i'm there, should be this weekend.

Mitch,
Sincere thanks for that - prior to all the EC legislation about brekers yards it used to be one of my favourite hobbies, wandering around scrapyards. Now it is rare that they will allow you past the front gate.
With regard to the hinge, I eventually fond some second hand ones at an exorbitant price but since it is holding up the car's repaint beggars can't be choosers so thanks again, I should have posted that I found some, but there's no need to go to the yard - unless of course you enjoy it!
