Still not got the welding skillz to fix the rot so been tinkering with my tailgate. Figured as it'll be getting painted I'd get rid of the unused holes instead of just using grommets.
How it started
Plate lined up
Welded
Washer hole was annoying due to box section, so had to carefully plate a piece of metal in with the magnet
In
Both welds ground down ready for filling
And left it mid-filler, just needs a bit of finishing
