Default Cargo door hinges needed, where to buy?

Both of the hinges on our cargo door are toast and need to be replaced. Pin snapped on the top one and the bottom one is all twisted from the top one failing. Anyway I need a set and have heard about them being gm parts, but nobody says the part numbers so I'm unsure what to ask for. I was going to order from AB but if I can just go down the the Chevy dealer, it might be easier. I'd even be interested in a used set if any of the guys on here happen to have them. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

If they're the same as the ones on a D2 then I have a parts truck I can sell you a set off of. I don't know if they're the same or not though.

I want to say they are different but I'm not 100%, someone who knows will likely chime in. If they end up being a match I'll take them.

Upon closer inspection it appears they are the same part for both d1 and d2. Pm me with price. Thanks

I pounded the pin out out of mine. Reamed the hole with a drill bit, and slapped 7/16"(I think) bolt in there.
If you want to get fancy use a bolt with a zerk fitting to keep the hinge lubed.

I found this on Land Rovers Only but I don't have a way to verify.
"Its a General Motors part From The Caprice Station Wagons, vanduras, and chevy astro/express vans, should be a number on the bracket,inboard to the right."

Not the pin, the whole hinge.
