yeah, put a plate in first and you should be fine for a wing or wiper.
You cannot screw direct into fibre as the thread would not hold. If a metal plate was installed during the manufacturing process then you could screw into it, but if not then you would have to sandwich the plate between the bolt head and the hatch. i.e. the wing should have threads for the bolts to fasten to, so sandwich as follows - wing - hatch - metal plate - bolt. This is so the metal plate is spreading the force of the bolt heads over a larger area of the fibre. |
