Don't they just bolt on to the body up under there? Or is a bracket

Yes, it was blue. Thanks, but please don't bother with it, though,
unless you find it to be very simple, straight forward and easy to get
the springs. According to Service Manual CD, it appears to be
significantly more involved to R&R the hinges than I care to mess with
right now. 'Don't know if springs can simply be compressed a bit and
removed readily, or not - 'been too hot to investigate more. 'May be
heretical, but I've managed to dampen the violent opening of the lid
by securing/hiding several small zip lock bags (about 5 pounds) of
lead wheel weights inside the cavity across rear of the lid.

I believe the springs are different. Might want to check with the
Q to see how cheap they are.
