Patch panels

I am getting ready to work on the floor of my truck, and going to have to buy some patch panels for the floor. Which vender on here would be the best to get those from? Who has used the fenders for floor patch panels and what did you think of the metal and fit?

Eric

Re: Patch panels

LMC is probably your best bet. Very easy to deal with.

Re: Patch panels

I would recommend any of the vendors here over LMC. I can't personally vouch for the other vendors, but my prices are typically lower on patch panels than LMC, plus, I support this board.

I started selling parts because of POOR service from LMC, plus the are too high....

Re: Patch panels

I agree, I've used LMC in the past but I always find better prices other places.

Re: Patch panels

I'd rather pay more to a site vendor, but that's just me.

Re: Patch panels

Thinking of using GMC Pauls for most of my stuff, How are they?

Re: Patch panels

Except for price, they all peddle the same cheap overseas sheetmetal. Nothing made here anymore. Junkyard scores are getting pretty rare. Good luck.

Re: Patch panels

GMC Pauls is a straight shooter. Very good reputation, and he uses the parts he sells. If you have a question or a problem, he will have an answer.
