Default Re: 31 lower cowl patch panel recommendations

I put a coupe of sets on in the past 5 years. They came from Snyders, so not sure if the same as Berts have. Every patch panel I have installed needs some work to get it to fit.

The one's I put in a Coupe ended up being a bit too long so had to shorten them up so they fit at the back and also along the front where the cowl band fits. As John said, the less of the original sheet metal you have to cut out the better.

Seems like there were two options for the panels, one that had the correct contours and one that was just stamped flat. Of course, the former is more $$$, but if you don't have any original metal, spend the extra bucks to get the contours.


As said earlier, ask Steve about the bead and quality and contours
