2000 Eagle loses it's wing

On our last trip back, I noticed something go past my rearview camera. Turns out it was my wing/spoiler! Seems that all but 2 of the fiberglassed in mounting pads turned loose. Upon inspection this was caused by the metal bracket rusting. Luckily the fiberglass spoiler wasn't damaged, as it's not available anymore. I'm in the process of making new mounting tabs (had 1 left from each side for patterns) and will be able to remount it in a few weeks (I work slow).
If you own one of these older coaches, next time you're on the roof, you might want to inspect the mounting points for your wing/spoiler. Just an FYI.
