Cutting side marker lights in 67 bedside - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi all, Ive been searching for a passenger bedside panel and havent had much luck until I found a 1967 shortbox for sale. I have a 71 c10 and was wondering how hard it would be to fashion the bedside to hold side marker lights? I only need the passenger side so its either I cut that side or fill in the driver side. Any help or advice on this would be great.

Please don't cut up a one year only '67 bed! You could always cut down a later long bed side or just keep looking for a short bedside. Or you could bolt on the '67 short term and sell it when you find a marker short bedside. Have you tried a CL Wanted ad? Right now there is a guy parting a 1 ton local to you on CL.
