[DeTomaso] Clutch Master Access Hole - Recommendations?

[Jeff Detrich]

If you must do a hole, use a hole saw and a rubber hole plug. I'd get the
plug first for sizing because you only get one chance doing a round hole.

   If you must do a hole, use a hole saw and a rubber hole plug. I'd get
   the plug first for sizing because you only get one chance doing a round
   hole.
