Getting near to installing the hinges, and find that Vans didn't bother
to mark them at all. I haven't found on any build logs anything that
identifies which is left and right. Does the high side go to the front
or rear?

Not next to my plane yet but I'm pretty sure the high sides face away from each for the contour of the cabin top and door top. It's not that they all face fwd or aft. They mirror each other.

Kelly, here is a couple of shots that should help..... btw, would you still like to have a set of the hinge covers. Sorry I hadn't sent them off already.

FYI, the hinges definitely rate multiple trial fittings and clear
marking. I've found it impossible to visually determine which hinge is
which. When I guess, it's ALWAYS wrong. Only my markings allow me to
get them back on right. And when you paint and prime, make sure you
maintain your marks.
