55-59 cab corner panel doesn't fit

I worked two days getting a patch panel I bought way back when to fit. I have the right side to replace next and need to know what patch panels will fit correctly. The inners I bought recently at a swap meet were much closer to fitting than the outer but I don't know what brand they were. Can someone tell me what brand or supplier to buy an outer panel from that will fit. Thanks

I got mine 15 years ago from Jim Carter and they fit too. A lot of guys here have gotten ones that require pie cuts and major mods to fit.

The ones from Dynacorn seem to fit much better than the ones from Key Parts. Dynacorn corners are a little more in price but you don't have to massage it as much. None fit perfectly.

Do I have to go through Dynacorn to buy them?
