Hi folks. One of the 3 hinges on our motorhome door is broken. the pin that inserts into the hinge has sheared off. the part of the hinge attached to the frame of the door is fine. I had a look at spares on O Leary motorhomes but there are a few options and I am not sure which one is best. I am hoping not to have to touch the hinge connected to the motorhome as it is riveted in. Ideally I would just use the piece that has the pin on it. see. attached picture of a good hinge. Any help appreciated if someone could link what I need to order..

Removal of the old hinge shouldn't be all that hard
But alternative might be to leave the hinge in place and just add an new hinge either above or below the old one - might look odd though?
