Hello to all!
I wonder if someone has a picture of the strut to the front wing. (My car is actually parked in his "winter home" some km from my home).
On my car it is fixed with a thick piece of rubber to the large sidelights.
On one side the strut seems to have a crack so a picture would help me to see how I can go on. (what rubber to replace the old one etc.)
By the way: I think that Morgans without sidelights also have struts but how are this parts fixed on this cars??
Thank you in advance!

Hi Bernd, is this helpful at all.. My 4/4 Sport of 2009 had no sidelights and the bracket was glued to the underside of the wing.

On the later Mogs the front wings accomodate this shallow U bracket. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/Turpbk4.jpeg) This is riveted onto underside top of wing, obviously in a blind fashion externally. The bracket appears to hold a captive nut allowing positive attachment of strut.
