Default 1965 big car convertible rain channel rust issue

I’m in resto progress with my 65 Bonneville convertible ..now i have a cut in progress because I didn’t know to process further ..
The rain Chanel under the rear window panel is rusted away on LH & RH side .. the outer skin on this panel at the trunk lid hinge area too ..
I bought times ago a solid piece from a parting car (65 Catalina) happy to have ,)
But I don’t know how to start the work .. remove the outer skin from old and new panel ? Patch only the rain Chanel with my spare piece (to cut what needed ? It’s all hidden .. Or remove my full old panel (hinges still in place at wheel housing ) and full replace the new panel ? Appears the best way ..
Damn that’s a big number to do ..
thx for any feedback ..perhaps somebody done this job
