Questions about rear trunk hinges & pivots, are these hinges repairable? - NOPE Options

[seanpaulmc]

Here are some pictures of the rear trunk pivots in the 914 I bought. It looks like a few people have been in there before, but I don't know what it should look like. Although it is working as of now, I want to plan this repair before it goes bad.

Would someone post a picture what this should look like originally?
And, would someone post pictures of the JWest trunk pivots installed?
Are there other options? JWest shows out of stock.







Thanks in advance.

I maintain that a proper repair of these is best done with the engine out, especially
if original appearance and function are important.
Most of us are not able to weld upsidedown....at crotch level... in tight quarters....
with fuel lines nearby....and no absolutes for position.
Just sayin'
