Well im not sure of any links, but i bought hinges for my car at the Dealership. They were kinda pricey, and a pain to get in-cause the old ones were welded to the door. But they came with nuts and a nut plate for the new one, it has worked really well so far. If u have any questions just ask, I hope that helped.

ya, when you say welded do you mean that they are like spot welded metal to metal and have to use a blow torch to get them off?
