I want to buy a hinge at http://tinyurl.com/cgbwd

Is that something I can do it easily by myself?
Would it matter if I buy Hinge left or Hinge right for the passenger

I have been having a strange problem over the past few months with
what appears on the surface to be my automatic Climate Control system.
