Search for some of the cab repair posts on this site, they'll be very helpful.  The short answer is that you cut all of them out, screw/clamp all of the new panels in, and weld them in.  You really have to do them all at once (one side at a time).

 Go on youtube and checkout all of the videos by a guy called milkcrate. He does the exact same thing and explains the correct order to put these on. FWIW- I have to do the exact same thing to mine as well. No I have not started yet either.
