my self i would not buy a patch panel for that repair i would just make the patch panel .
1st grind it with a 40 grit 3" roll locks disc remove the finish down to bare metal about 3 inches past the rot spot .
2nd make your little patch panel and then with a fine point sharpie marker trace the patch piece were it goes and cut out the rusted area with a cut off wheel . i found the little dremel cut off wheels work good in tight spots like that . you how ever will eat up a lot of them but there cheap so buy a 10 or 20 pack of them .
3rd finish sizing the patch piece to fit so you can but weld the patch in . them weld it with little tack welds . do not over weld it and build to much heat let it cool between welds .
4th grind it with some 40 grit again with the 3" roll locks and then check to be sure you have not missed any part of the patch . once all welded and ground down then spray a light coat of etch primer over the bare metal let it dry good and then do you plastic body filler work .
5th spray another coat of etch primer and then filler primer let it dry and then prep and paint it with your top coat .
every ez repair should take about 6 hours to get it into primer .
