How much interest is there for the hinges guys if I decide to reproduce them? I mean who will actually buy them?

UPDATE:  I had to send some new measurements and adjustments to the shop to make sure the gasket with its wiring channel fit properly into the right side hinge.  I supplied a spare gasket so they could adjust their drawings.  I also noticed a difference in mounting boss length on the hatch side and compared this to a few other sets of hinges.  There is a slight difference in length between some sets.  We cannot pinpoint WHY that is exactly.  To compensate, the shop suggested tacking on a washer.  If not needed (hatch remains loose after installation) this washer can be removed and discarded.

After verifying fitment of the gasket and wiring, a pre-production set of hinges was supplied to myself and Richard for a final L/R test fitment.  Photos below show these various test fits on my White Eagle wagon and Richard's copper Eagle wagon.  I included some other photos showing the detail of the hinges.

The current process is applying a protective coating to the polished aluminum finish for longevity.  Once this is arranged, the shop will come up with a final cost to the customer per set.  The hinges will be sold through the shop.  

I will share info on pricing and how to purchase as soon as it becomes available to us!

Thanks for your interest!
