Hi all,

I ordered two pair of cockpit seat hinges from Catalina Direct. While they seem to be an exact match, the screw holes do not quite line-up. Hmmmm...

Has anyone else experienced this?

Suggestions besides fill and drill?

Nothing I have ever ordered from Catalina Direct had a matching hole pattern.

I would guess that over the years Catalina had many different suppliers for the hardware hence the reason they line up for some but not for others.
