2nd Securing for the Mushroom
Has anyone got any pictures of how they did the 2nd securing for the mushroom? I can't really do anything elegant like some have on here using a lathe or tig welding an extra bit on. I'm guessing I need to drill a hole through the upright and mushroom somewhere but would love to see where/how some other people did this before I attempt it!

All I did was drill & tap a M4 hole through the upright and the mushroom from the rear. Then threadlocked a M4 button head bolt in.

I drilled a 5mm hole through the meatiest part at the front of the uprights, then put 5mm roll pins in, took about 5 mins!

I haven't, sorry. But I drilled inline with the mushroom clamping bolt from the back of the car going forwards.

I did similar to Adrian, I,ve drilled & tapped thru the forward face of the upright, thinking it was the "meatier" area, then tapped it to take an M6 bolt & loctited them in then covered the bolt head with a plastic cover ( similar to the suspension bolt covers )
Can take a photo if you wish ? cheers andy
