I guess those of us with the cheesy gas strut factory aluminum plate on the large cargo door should be grateful...I had an opportunity to look at a used high end 2010 Elite $uites today, and no plate was used....the same old strut bracket is screwed directly to the door. Guess if they were smart engineers, they would have had some structural material formed into the interior of the door to hold the screws....wonder if they did...?
