Wagon tailgate trouble 850 1995

Hello all,

Has anyone figured out an inexpensive way to fix a worn out interior tailgate panel? On my '95 850 wagon, the plastic holes which normally accept the four black snap fittings have worn so they don't hold anymore. So far I've thought of bending homemade, pre-drilled sheetmetal clips over the hole supports or fiberglassing around the holes to beef them up.

Also, are the 850's tailgate shock supports (hidden above the headliner?) hard to replace? Anyone know of a low-cost source?

Thanks in advance,

Chris
