sorry James only just seen this, as you have seen it's all fitted now, used some big washers underneath, May make
some plates but can't see what real benefit it will have . ordered some black soft aircon lagging to cover it in, it's also
got a self adhesive strip on the joint so no need for tape or cable ties :-)

Received the black aircon lagging this week, good as the split joint has an adhesive tape on it
so you can re-seal the lagging ,with no need for cable ties and tape...
