TT slide out bed motor housing stripped

I have a small Rockwood Roo TT with a slide out bed.
The slide out motor housing is attached to the exterior wall (made of particle board) with 4 short lag screws.
When bringing in the bed recently, the motor came detached from the wall. The only damage was having to put a wire nut back onto the line going to the motor.
Any thoughts on how to reinforce and reattach this bracket better? The previous holes are completely stripped. If I use machine bolts, you would see them from the outside of the trailer.

  • Could you fill the holes with a piece of wood and glue or epoxy? I have done it on smaller holes with tooth picks.
