Doors won`t fit on my GTI - strange hinges

Anyone have info about how to get doors (with the longest hinges to the right) to fit my 1983 GTI which have shorter hinges (left)?

Can you just knock the pin out and fit the hinge type you want?

Yeah it might work. Would need to try. Just wanted to get some feedback from others experience before starting myself to try.

Anyone know which VW type these two hinges origins from?

Both of my mk1's have hinges with a single bolt on the door, both cars are tintops.

It's just the difference between early and late cars I think. 

Ahh yeh according to etka the early cars had hinges with two bolt holes

When in doubt Grind it out.  I would swap the hinges over if the fitment is good.
that is press the hinge pin, (you can get new ones)
and have a go.

Before the door is off the car, check the fitment and if you have door sag you can bend the hinges on the "A" pillar easier with the door off.

As well as checking the door check.
 

 Early doors, i wouldnt butcher them.
Early parts are hard to find.
