so joe,,

are the latches along with the perko hinges the way my console doors were original? Maybe that's why someone replaced the hinges with self closing?

What is the opinion of going with self closing hinges? I've found a couple of sites that have brass and/or chrome over brass.

Not looking to save money necessarily , just want easy access on Ocean to my stuff in the console. I need to add that my batteries were movved out of console by previous owner so i have tons of storage in the console.
tks
again
