[Peugeot-L] Broken 505 wgn tailgate strut ball mount

I was driving home tonight on the dark and scary streets of Seattle and heard a "pop" and a clatter from the rear of the car.

Pulling off and looking around I found the right side strut ball mount had broken away from the body leaving a hole in the pillar. It almost looks like it was pop riveted. Hard to really tell at night...

My first thought was to go up to that trailer place on Aurora (the first place that came to mind where they weld every day) and see if they could tack the stub back on.

Any other thoughts, suggestions welcome.

The struts were not oem; I bought them from Schucks, a local auto parts chain, last summer. They were stiff, but not overly so, imo, and were specific to the application, not generic fits all...
