Anybody tried the "above the windshield" patch panel yet?

Like the title says, has anyone tried the newish patch panel that repairs the area above the windshield on the '60-'63 trucks yet? I think LMC and a couple of other vendors are now selling them for around $100.

How do they fit? How much do they cover (width wise)? Are you happy with it (would you do it again)? Or would you fix it differently if you could do it over again?

Thanks for the help.

I've only seen people either make their own or use a donor cab for that peticular area. Although I don't know how well the patch panal fits. I hear it's just easier to make your own or cut out what you need from another cab. If you do go with a patch panal, let us know how it works out. Pics are always a good thing.
