This couldnt have come at a better time. My doors has dropped about an inch on both sides. I was thinking about replacing the hinges when I bring them back up
Would be good to see some headlight options… see plenty budget Chinese stuff then they all seem to jump to 400! Appreciate you did do an early demo of one lamp but would be good to see lots of comparisons…..
Can't help but wonder if the Exmoor Trim hinges could be easily modified to, at least provide that additional rear anchor or something similar. Love the Optimil products but agree on the looks.
I just sent a front set back to the eBay supplier because two of the hinges were loose even although the seller said ,there’s no slop in our hinges,lol.
Great video, Thank you for making these they are just what we all need!.. If you’re defender has had a respray… will the optimill hinges cover the same footprint as the original hinges? Unfortunately my hinges were kept on when it’s been resprayed so anything smaller will show the old paint. Thanks 👍🏻
Great question. Because of the 'footprint' there is going to be some areas you can see where the old hinge sat. You could mask off the area with the hinge removed (small rectangle) and paint it with satin black or even Raptor, before putting the new hinge on. This would smarten the area up until you felt like painting the whole door. Would look even better with rounded corners to suit the Optimill hinge.
Does Optimil make a version without their brand on it? The product is great, I just don’t want to be a rolling billboard for them with “Optimil” labelled on every single bonnet and door hinge on my car 😂
ive had a frew britpart rear hinges and they have been utter rubbish didnt pass the wobble test and ive had front door hinges badly finnished off too again britpart the quality control on these are utter sh-te
