Recreating 6 same panels using the json editor

[hatman]

I have 6 panels, (panel 1…panel6).
what I want to do is copy these 6 panels in json, so I will have 12 panels in total, and then slightly change these 6 new panels accordingly.
to do this I have to change the id "id": 2, in each panel.
is there anyhing else?
Also, what is the best way of editing the json file? is it in the browser?
I think i have to change the gridPos also:

      "gridPos": {
        "h": 8,
        "w": 12,
        "x": 0,
        "y": 1
      },
      "id": 4,
	  
	  ...
	  
	        "gridPos": {
        "h": 8,
        "w": 12,
        "x": 12,
        "y": 1
      },
      "id": 5,

this is what my panel looks like:

  {
      "datasource": "halter-prometheus-tools",
      "fieldConfig": {
        "defaults": {
          "color": {
