Rust in door panel metal bracket

[Marcusgtzg81]

2023 Lariat EB, I got it this last January due to some big $ dealer discounts. Found this when installing new speakers yesterday... will do some sanding and painting to this metal bracket... not good. I sprayed some rust converter but just decided I will remove rust then rust converter, will see what I got within my stuff.

I suspect we all probably have rusty brackets at this point.

its a NON PAINTED part. IT WILL RUST. Get over it.

If you picky people wanted every non seen part painted, we wouldnt be buying the cheapest "truck" on the market..

Better be prepared to pull the whole dashboard out because the metal structure for that is untreated, too.

Rusty Brackets did porn in the 70s.

Overkill dude,this part will outlive both of us with no attention given to it. I would go nuts repairing every rusted part on my maverick and I intend to keep it at least 15 years. But I guess if it makes you feel better who am I to say?
