I also need a patch panel like this one but for the passenger side, I received one from another vendor but it says slip on panel,and seems to be very light gauge and the wheel well lip width does not match ,it's only 1/2 inch wide, oem is almost an inch. I tried the link but it doesn't go anywhere.other vendors also only offer the smaller lip style.
