If this is good or not I don't know but I've seen it linked a few times. I would have thought just using filler would crack over time. |
I thought that too, i think europug has his done, could be worth asking

if your handy with filler etc yes, but you cant beat the welding method, the way i will be using next time.

I was looking at the panels the other day and they do seem a valid option but as said nothing beats welding a steel piece in there.
