Would someone post a picture of an unharmed passenger side A-pillar door support reinforcement panel showing the bottom attachment? Angled looking up would be best.


My original does not have the clarity to show the proper fit at the bottom flange. Here's where I'm working from.

I have the longitudinal patch fully welded in now, so here's where I'm at.
Need to go back and find/make the hole for the longitudinal cover.

This is the RD replacement panel. Nice piece.

I believe the original piece does not have this bottom flange that is on the RD piece. The RD piece would need to be trimmed at the bottom so it does not to cover the bolt hole for the outer long cover and factory weep holes on the longs in this area. Alternatively, the RD piece could be welded in as-is and just cover up the holes. I would like to see the original configuration accommodates the holes before make a decision on which way to do it.

Thanks World!
