In order to complete my changeover from the 1972 side marker lights to the 1971 style I need to modify the openings in the fenders/quarter panels. I am thinking about making the proper mounting opening in some scrap stainless steel which I hope can be tacked on (by some type of weld, don't know which would be best) behind the sheet metal. This is necessary because the 71 side marker lights are recessed into the fender. But I don't know anything about welders. Before I search out someone to help, just want to verify that sheet metal and stainless steel can be attached by a welding of some kind. In the foto you can seen the indentation in a factory 1971 fender that I need to duplicate with the stainless steel I am thinking about using. Thank you.
