VERY sound advice, I neglected to mention this because when I get my mate to do it I will be supervising ( with a pint since he owns a pub ) the entire job lol
Rust is like cancer, if its not all removed it will just come back..... I also paint with rust to metal converter ( cant remember its right name ) after o n the edges just incase

If you get it plated, cut the rust out yourself of make it clear you want every bit of rust cut out so they don't just plate on top of the rust as a cheapy quick job or it'll keep eating away and you'll have wasted money.

Mines isn't quite that bad, I'll cut it all away tomorrow & make the hole bigger lol.
Is this 2nd picture - a picture of it fixed?
I can't see it being that much of an issue TBH, doesn't seem an important part of the car.

Yep, 2nd picture of it finished.
You'll notice there's no mounting holes for the rear seats. Not a problem as the seats aren't going back in.
In fact, they're in the local dumpit site.
