Thanks everyone.

Going to give this a try in a couple of weekends. Hoping there is enough slack in the power window wiring to unbolt the door and move it out of the way to get to the hinges. Will definitely sharpie mark the hinges before I undo the door.

Keeping my fingers crossed the holes are not ovaled, though the kit came with thicker bushings too. Heck of a deal - like $3 from RockAuto. 2 pins, 8 bushings.
