Best source for patch panels?

I'm hoping that those who have ordered patch panels for their trucks can share some wisdom on what the best source might be?

I know they are available from LMC, Rock Auto, Brothers and others as well. I'm not a big fan of LMC, so I was leaning towards somewhere else. So I thought before I order anything, I would see if anyone has any positive or negative feedback about their past experiences.

This project is going to be the floor pan, inner/outer rocker and kick-panel on the drivers side.

Re: Best source for patch panels?

The parts are usually the same. Look for a place in another state (no sales tax) but close to reduce shipping costs.
Or, look for a place instate to pay tax and avoid shipping charges.
Or look for total price including shipping.
Rocket science...

If you are looking for OEM patches, I have several good cabs that I can cut patches from. They have severe CA DMV issues and aren't worth dealing with to put back on the road.
