We sell these hinges but be careful. They will not spring up like the OE ones. We have to wind them a little more and its a little scary.
These are dynacorn parts sold by drake. Try to find OE ones.

Not to hijack here, but have you noticed that with OE lids or Dynacorn lids? The Dynacorn lids are noticably heavier than OE, haven't put them on a scale but I'd bet its more than enough to affect the design spring tension.

Good catch! You are correct. But the weight is like 3 pounds more. I still think the dynacorn hinges need to be twisted a bit. Also I have only used these on the E cars or Shelbys. So they might actually lift a stock lid.
