after a conversation with Dustin, who has a good friend who is an AMD dealer and installer, I purchased an OER cowl assembly from Jegs. His friend said it is a good fitting part with no fitment issues with the windshield. His friend advised I check Jegs as they sell them very reasonably and he was right. The price for the assembly WITH free shipping was less than many places wanted for just the top cowl panel. Jegs did add an over size fee..... $10 !
Unbelievable deal to me.
I'll be picking up the glass set tomorrow and this may be here by the weekend.
With that all happening so quickly, I got to work on the car. The hole in the left A pillar brace was cut out, a patch formed and welded in.
The right side is solid enough to leave, just did an initial clean up with the stone wheel.
