I just received a set of cab corner patch panels,I bought them from a vendor that is known for selling the best stuff available.I am in no way bashing the vendor I am very pleased with them.On my other truck I bought a set at a car show and they were the same way.They are not even close were it attaches to the rocker panel,they have a key part sticker on them.They were only 16 bucks but I would certainly pay more for ones that fit better.Does anyone know of any better pieces ???60-66 c-10.Thanks.

In my experience the aftermarket patch panels are hit and miss as far as quality and fit. Seems to be more miss than hit though

You might try contacting MBGMike here on the forum. At one time he had some made in USA cab corners available. You can easily find him in the 'Vendors Marketplace' here on the forum.
