I bought a cargo area protector and it came with two hinges for the cargo bin. Instruction says the existing hinges need to be replaced with these ones. Does anyone know why? What is the difference between them?

They are are 'stronger' or "firmer" to keep the bin lid open better when now lifted with the protector added on. I did mine after leaving the original ones on but they didn't hold the deck open. With the new ones, it held open fine.

At least they thought ahead and didn't leave us without these.

Do you get these installed yet? Do you notice the difference?

Pictures would be awesome.

If you click on the link I provided in my post above in this thread,it goes to a thread in which I talk about mine and either posted photos in it or gave a link to my photos.

I like them for what I paid as well.
