using bondo is useless the holes will punch through with a poke of a finger, i say either weld pieces in there, throw some ghetto-fab tap over the holes, or look for a new(used) hatch off a wreck(what I did).
I agree. I've done the same actually by welding small pieces of sheet metal on the insides, covering the holes. Then filling the holes with some weld, smothing out, then bondoing. It'll be alot stronger than using just bondo and once it's finished (sanded smooth, primed and painted), you won't even tell that there were holes there.
But, if you don't want to put the time into doing it to make the bodywork last, it might be more practical for you to find another hatch. Get one in the same color and your good to go
