The U shaped brackets that the 3 10mm bolts go through that hold your deck lid brackets to the body.

They are not hard to make, if you have a sample. I made a couple out 2mm steel, using a drill and an angle grinder. The bolts are M6, by the way. If you have any trouble making them, let me know.....I could make a couple more.

Hey pauly,these are only to stiffen the brackets so they dont flex when opening and closing lid.I found a guy on the samba who makes some nice machined ones but i want some standard ones.
