The 2 in 1 hole punch is the easiest way you can make new instrument panel or add to current one. Punches through clean and precise, no sharp edges, and only takes a few seconds to do.

Works well. What seems to work best is continue to tighten the nut until you hear two. I use it in combination with a hole jig.

See our mounting hole template, part number 12-14600.
