First off... I know there's a gazillion posts about floor pans here. However, I want to be sure I'm spending my bread wisely.

The rear half of my passenger's pan has some rust through. There's a few holes in the battery tray, but there's also this crack up the right side of the seat track. Everything from the very front of the track and up is solid. I've looked at rear quarter pans at cip1, whitney, aircooled, etc... Does the seat track weld to this 'rear quarter' section, or will I need patch material for under the front brace of the seat track as well?

Sorry for the long winded question.

Thanks!! -- andrew

According to the OEVeeDub.com website, the Rear Quarter Pans measure 36-inches by 21-inches.

Maybe you can measure on your car and determine how far to the front that would cover.

Dang, my damage goes to about 38" from the rear. I wouldn't be too concerned with patching this if it weren't so close to the edge. Any concerns or things I should be aware of when welding a patch here. I really don't want to take the body off as this is my daily driver.
