Yes, there are safe-and-sane ways to drill the correct size of
hole, even in a new car. My personal favorite is the Irwin Manufacturing
'UniBit,' also known as a step-bit. Well worth the $45 or so they cost.

Couple said Unibit's action with a standard deburring tool for
sheet steel (available from any well-stocked hardware store), and you're
good to go.

Reserve a full day, take your time, and drink plenty of water.

Happy installing.



Harbor Freight has a set of three sizes on sale for $9.99 right now
thought Aug. 14th. http://www.harborfreight.com Item 91616 The
website shows $19.99 but the retail flyer I got in the mail today shows
the $9.99 price.

At that low of a price, I'd be really concerned about the quality
of these bits. More specifically, are they made-in-Taiwan imports, made
from Lord only knows what grade of steel, or are they the same quality
as the Irwin products?

To put it another way: You gets what you pays for. Caveat emptor
indeed...
