Phil I did my drivers side last winter and used the full patch panel and ended up straightening the 90 degree part that fits between the floor and bending it on a angle to make the panels fit at the floor. Take a look at carter auto restyling on you tube he usually makes this piece but there is a good video of him using the aftermarket pieces and showing the difference in original .I learned from this that the ribs on the panel don’t line up with the ribs on the door . The video also shows cutting close to the door rubber track instead of removing it but I chose to carefully remove the spot welds for the track as they are sandwiched between the panel . On my floor the ribs on the panel I used were also a little off I was going to cut and join on the rib closest to the seat and they were off also ,could be a Canadian truck thing .The transmission cover is we’re the original ribs were and the original rib were I wanted to join is were I circled and got lucky that I did not cut using the ribs as a guide.
