Sorry Rob I missed your post..

Not having seen the instructions or content of the Surprise kit, I am unable to comment, but I will try and ascertain why there are no instructions for placement.

Yeah, the problem with the ones that come with the kit is that they clear coat the brass. That's great if you want them shiny which I didn't. I knew that however, so I sanded both sides before I cut them off the runners then I left them in the blackener long enough to eat off the clear coat on the edges. It was still a pain in the butt.

I used mine but never as real hinges. I really didn't care if they opened or closed. My hatches are just static glued on with CA glue in the open position with wire ropes. The hinges are nailed and glued on just for the aesthetics. They are extremely strong. The hinges look fine. They work as good as anything IMO.
