Hi, Sebastien and Gaby

If you're futting a full rocker panel, get a spot weld drill and take out
the old welds. They're easier to find if you wire brush the paint off the
seams.

If fitting a part panel and have a good air compressor, use either an air
saw or air nibbler to cut along the panel. Failing that, an electric jig saw
or reciprocating saw both work well. I use a carborundum grit blade-they
last longer.

Some people use an air chisel or a hammer and bolster chisel. This is a
brilliant way to make a hash of the job.

All the best, Dave hill.
