i used a drill with a small drill bit and drilled a **** load of holes around the perimeter of where i wanted the hole. then i took a utility knife and cut through the holes. then i took a file and smoothed the ridges so that i had a safer edge (no cutting fingers open).
if you're not used to using power tools or a knife, then don't try this at home.

get it replaced under warranty
lol
using a dremel would be the quickest and easiest way to undergo this project. i dont have a dremel, though, so i used what i had at the time - a drill and a knife.

I need to figure out how to wire the fog lights because mine came with no instructions. Any help with that will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. I already cut the holes, and they look really nice. I just need to get the wiring done so I can start using them... Thanks again.
