Has anyone changed the hinges as a DIY project ?
I have the spare part.

Size of rivets

Please help an unlucky Coast owner how would like to safe 3 hours at a VW dealer.

This happened to us recently, leaving something on the ledge above the wardrobe. I didn't like the idea of trying to fix it myself, and risk making the situation worse, so took it to VW. Cost £167 and took half a day.
