What are you fixing and/or replacing on the hatch? The interior pull down
handle on mine broke. The window shade was also on its last legs. I pulled
everything apart. There were a good number of broken plastic bits. Some of
which I probably broke trying to get the damn thing apart. I'm almost done
reinforcing and repairing it. Once complete I will post what I did, but can
send you photos in the mean time if you want.
I used a good deal of plastic epoxy and the stiff wire from binder clips
(used as reinforcement, similar to rebar in concrete). I also used 1" x 1"
x 1/16th" thick angled aluminum from Homedespot to reinforce the handle and
spread the force to two screws and two clips.
