Reinforcing gas strut fittings for Pennine Pathfinder

This is how I went about preventing the gas strut fittings damaging the bodywork further

Glad I was sent this way for this video! Did you have any issues with access on either bed or either side of the camper?!

Hi There, No, no issues at all, just the front offside needs a corner cutting out of the plate as I illustrated. The front nearside you take the outside upper Fridge Vent off and you can get to put the plate in from there, I forgot to mention that on the Video, maybe I should redo the Video, Hope you get on alright

Hi, can you remember the size you ordered & have you got a link or name of the people on ebay who sell these plates. Thx

Hi There, These are the plates I bought, from this place on Ebay 75mm x 75mm x 3mm thick with 8mm hole in the middle..... www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-mm-SQUARE-PLATE-WASHERS-A2-STAINLESS-STEEL-50-75-mm-x-3-0-mm-Thick-M6-M25/254022225792?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=553359513722&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1vOg37XGBojJOmI3sx7HZfbsgleMvzsBkbH4I7zgbD4CZWfjRrTdg5VOM_aem_M6WicmCBUTXc8d1aFqvGGA

Thanks so much for your reply, I've just bought a Pennine Pathfinder & it has the same problem on one side, I had the same idea with the metal plates but hadn't searched for any yet, this has saved me some time. Much appreciated Thanks
