Hi, I'm having difficulty sourcing two gas locker hinges for my van:

Rapido Club 30 PopTop

The previous owners put two garden hinges (t-hinges) on the box and subsequently rusted leaving horrible rust residue all down the front - I took off the hinges to clean the gas locker box more thoroughly and I'm now thinking of replacing them with hinges which are smaller and more like the ones which were on originally (see pic)

[/IMG]

OK they don't have to be the exact ones but something better than garden hinges! The problem I'm having is cost, many of the gas locker hinges are priced from £20 to £40 EACH (plus shipping!)and look nothing like what I've got.

So budget minded ideas would be the order of the day.

Help (as always) much appreciated

Thank you Alpiner I saw a pair of Hinge Alpine 3 leaf on the page you sent me too - only £5.11. I'll measure up tomorrow and make sure they fit but it's looking good. Be a lot neater than a another pair of garden hinges!

Thanks again!
