    Can always check parts diagrams for part numbers?

    The best source of car porn (detailed photos of weird places on cars) is bring a trailer. i bet you’ll find dozens of pictures of 348 hinges there.

    I’ve looked through a lot but no one ever takes pictures of the jamb area. Coupé hinge looks like a triangle ish while the spider almost looks squared.

    well I’ll be damned.

    You can find diagrams here. Don’t trust the images, trust the part numbers.

    So I looked on there earlier and it’s the same PN but looking through pictures of doors open on spiders online the hinge appears to have a flat side facing the rear.

    hoping someone in here can take a couple pictures of theirs to verify

    The door hinges, and certain other related hardware, are different on the Spider (have different p/n). There are also some differences for Assembly numbers up to 15171 and from 15172. See diagrams at the given link (Maranello) under model selection "348 GTB/GTS/GTC/Spider".
