Best way to change hinges in a 2Door Pie Cut Corner Face Frame Cabinet in old CCL

Currently in the CCL 50.3.

I am trying to setup 2Door Pie Cut Corner Face Frame Cabinets to be able to switch out the Hinges/Plates being used for these cabinets.  By default, all the Face Frame cabinets use whatever hardware is selected in the Global.   I need to be able to change out the hinges or even switch to frameless hinges (to get a hinge and plate) to get the proper opening angle.  

In our current case and with most face frame hinges the max opening angle is 107-120*.  But in our opinion and desire we want to use 165-180* hinges.   The hinge type I am being told also change based on the overlay. 

Hinges for Pie Cut Lazy Susans 1 ¼” Overlay 
For Door to cabinet
Salice: #C2RFA99 165° Hinge
Salice: #BAM3R09 Mounting Plate
For Door to Door 
Blum: # 79T8530.10 Pie Cut Corner Hinge
Blum: #175H6000 Mounting Plate

Hinges for Pie Cut Lazy Susans 1/2” Overlay
For Door to cabinet
Blum: #71T3540B 165° Hinge
Blum: #175H6040 Mounting Plate
For Door to Door 
Blum: # 79T8530.10 Pie Cut Corner Hinge
Blum: #175H6000 Mounting Plate







So, the question is what is the best way to change hinges in a 2Door Pie Cut Corner Face Frame Cabinet? 

I have considered adding a new Global to select the hinge.  But since it needs a hinge and plate, I would be looking at using the Frameless System selection.   

Is there are good way to the existing setup without hard coding things?  I am trying to avoid this since we have 4 distinct lines of cabinets, and the hardware can vary based on price point.
