Hi Jacob, like yours the bonded steel plates in mine had rusted and ‘blown’ the fibreglass, best to remove them. I wouldn’t bond in aluminium but reinforce the mounting area with a few layers of glass cloth starting with a small patch and then increasing the size of the cloth for subsequent layers. I would use rubber washers on both of the bolts that pass through the body to the brackets. From memory mine had mount points on each of the chassis cross members, the front bulkhead (which was steel but I replaced with fibreglass) and I made a supporting hoop for the rear of the cockpit. Happy to give you a call if I can be of any help.
