I have never seen an aftermarket hinge for these. I do happen to have an extra top with hinge. The hinge is near perfect, no rust, only a couple minor scratches from use. I would like $20 plus shipping for both. The top is red but could be easily re-painted to match what your console color is or just use the hinge. Let me know if your interested.
Thanks

Let me know what the shipping (cheapest) will be.
No rush, I have more time than money. LOL

Hardware stores have hinge stock I am sure you could cut down to the proper length.

Tried that but the holes don't match up.

Could you drill new holes in the hinge?

You can buy piano hinges that have no holes so you can match the location and cut to length you need. Check a marine supply catolog, you can get them in brass,stainless and aluminum.
