I am painting my car and would like to get some less second hand door hinges. Do any other toyotas use the same door hinges as my sprinter. I was going to go for a walk around the wreckers but if i can narrow down my searching i wont get so froozen outside.
Thanks
Brad

I bought new ones from Toyota for about 60 dollars each for the drivers side.
They should last for another 20 years.......

It's well past time I got me some new ones! It's a worry every time I open the door and it drops 20mm... Most people can't even open the door properly for that reason

I will have a look for the receipt. Mind you the guy that looked up the parts for me took about 5 minutes and didn't bitch at all.
If some guys bitch about looking up old parts maybe they should not work in a parts place - I'd go someplace else.
