The bottom door hinges of the lotus elan generally become badly corroded over a long period of time.
The threads can also be damaged or stripped through the difficult removal process of seized parts. If a full restoration is in progress, it makes economic sense to replace all of the door hinges during the restoration.
The upper and lower elan (S1 to S4) door hinges are identical. These hinges DO NOT fit the plus two elan.
The early S1 elan door hinge featured large round holes – The later series, including the reproduction hinge product we supply, has elongated bolt holes milled into the hinge which allow a large movement and adjustment to help with correct door closure.
We generally carry a stock of hinges, but from time to time that may not be the case. A stock shortage may mean an extended lead time for order fulfillment could vary from three to four weeks depending on the work load.
This page allows the purchase of one complete set of four elan door hinges, if you wish to purchase two hinges please contact us for a price.
