Upper door hinge pin?

I think I found a way to replace them fairly cheap without paying $80 per door for a kit. I'm just wondering if anyone knows the diameter of the hole in the hinge itself. It's a long shot, but I really need to know.

Would you mind sharing your thoughts? I was planning on buying a kit and would like to avoid that if possible.
Thanks,
