Default Rust under windscreen

could anyone tell me if i can obtain a new panel that the bottom part of the windscreen glues to?
took windscreen out the other day to get a new one put in and discovered that the passenger side bottom corner had rotted away, the side pillars and top are all solid its jus the bottom bit. so i need to get this replaced in order to get a new screen fitted.
can't seem to find this panel anywhere!
anyone got any ideas or come across this problem b4?
any help would b appreciated
thanks

u can buy a scuttle panel rapair piece or fabricate a section out of sheet steel then weld it in , i did this and its sound, but you will need to fill over, prime then paint. if u know what your doing, its easy, if not, its a job for the bodyshop
hope this helps mate.
