Default Hatch troubles...

Car :: 89 Si Hatch

I was just outside working on the car and opened the hatch and oops, the right hinge BROKE OFF!! My first reaction was "****", but I was able to get it closed and it looks solid for the moment. What my question is how do I go about fixing this problem? I can see the hinge is bolted to the hatch door but looks like it's welded to the body or are there bolts underneath the interior liner? Would I be able to ****** one off a junk yard hatch and be able to fix this myself or is a body shop/commercial garage needed for this.

Any feedback appreciated, thanks!

So then it broke like where the hinge would be right?? If so yeah grab one from the junkyard and replace it and yes the nuts are inside the car under the interior.
