I have a Laguna 14SE and the hinge on the top of upper door has been broke for over a year. I called Laguna and they wanted $40 for it....
Unbelievable...Anyway, it is a small plastic hinge. See picture here: http://prntscr.com/rka7m
Anyone know where I can find these or have a similar problem they fixed?
I can prob find something to work but figured I would ask here first.
Thanks for your help.

What about a standard metal hinge from the hardware store? Might not look the nicest and you might also have to drill a few holes for the bolts/screws but it's an inexpensive fix. Just my thoughts,

Hinge is kind of expensive. I think you should take the hinge on Laguna.

I guess I don't understand your post... are you saying just buy the hinge from Laguna?
I'm not going to pay $40 for a plastic hinge that will probably break again. I've already spent my last $ there...but thanks for the suggestion.

Yes, I figured I would end up doing just as you suggested, just thought I would see if anyone else had a similar problem and if they were able to find the same hinge elsewhere.
Thank you.
