Tailgate strut mount pictures

[HoopDub]

Greetings fellow humans. I am on the scrounge again. I am looking for a T6 or 6.1 owner to take some pics of the lower gas strut mounting for vans with a tailgate. I know most have a plastic trim over the bracket. Im trying to work out how the bracket is mounted to the van. Any help appreciated

Thanks mate. I've got all those bits. I've found the bits I would need to go down the fully oem route of this conversion, but it would involve potential cutting and welding of a new inner section of D pillar. The panel has the captive nuts and extra strength required for the mounting of the struts.

The panels are only £20 a side. But I can't be bothered with the work involved to fit them.

I think i will just go with an off the shelf conversion kit. Atleast that can be reversed easily if i ever needed to fit barnies again.

I used these brackets on our tailgate conversion and they are excellent quality. Recommended.
