Who has the best fitting patch panels for these trucks? I looked at Classic Parts web site, they have a good selection of patch panels, but how do they comprare in fit and cost?

What are yall's thoughts?

In both my experience and what I've read of others, Classic Parts is one of the best for replacement panels and patch panels. But as all of these are made over seas, they are subject to being a reject part occasionally. From what I've heard, Classic is real good about exchanging unsatisfactory parts. You might also check with a couple of our supporting Vendors here on the board such as MBG Mike and Tri-Pro Automotive.

from what I understand most of these panels are made by the same company, just depends on who has the best deals, I've bought alot from Truck Shop, and Classic parts is good to deal with.

MGB Mike has some good prices, and he seems to carry the better patches
