Took the top hinges off today. Popped the pins out, and gave them a light fettling with a hammer. Didn't make a blind bit of difference.
Took them out again and smacked the sh1t out of them with a larger hammer. A vast improvement - nearly all the movement gone. Had to raise the door latches by a few mm so they'd shut (they'd obviously dropped a fair bit).
Haven't tried them with side screens yet thoiugh.
Also gave the drivers door stay a quick squeeze in the vice (with the rubber vice covers) and that works a lot better now.
Hopefully be able to get some oversize pins and make a more permanent repair.
