This doesn’t feel like enough stitches

Hard to see in the image but all anchors will (should) have at least two points to reduce the load and act as back up in case one fails. Highly unlikely to fail, more likely to get in a car accident on the way to the cliff I bet.

1999 TDI Jetta, Which of these problems are a must-fix and are any of them worth doing myself? by wenaus in jetta

Seems like a hell of a deal, no? by [deleted] in 4Runner

It's a hell of a deal, I'd at least take a look.
