then drilled a pilot hole right through the boot box and the main body below:
The manual says to fix using rivnuts so I did. Unfortunately as the rivnut tightened it expanded and cracked the fibreglass:
on the other side I tried drilling a larger hole. This time it didn't crack in the same way but there is still a hairline crack. What I think I will do is leave it as it is and if in the future the crack gets worse I'll patch up with some fibreglass. If it gets really bad I'll replace with a piece of alu plate rivetted in place with the rivnut in the plate.
And from the outside you will never see it so it all looks very neat:
