Power door panels on a manual door

[Tilt]

I tried doing a search, but only found people asking about it and some that said it would work, but no follow up post or photos. I set the power door panel on my door and the window crank sticks through right about in the middle of the hole for the 2 power window switches on the driver side. With the window crank on, there is still a good amount of the hole visible. Has anyone swapped their door panels and how did you hide the hole in a way that looks nice. I thought about getting a piece from a trophy shop to cover it and extend out far enough to have them engrave "LSX" or something like that. I would really like to see what others have done. Thanks

You might find another type of panel,i had PL with manual windows in my 87 burb.

Did you come up with a solution? I have the same problem but haven't made it far enough to address that yet.

I wasn't able to make the power window panels look "right". I found a member here selling a pair of deluxe manual door panels shortly after posting this so I just bought them and sold the pair I had.
