Strangely enough I did this at the weekend. I didn't hit anything, but don't know if that was just luck or not? Make the holes bigger very gradually so the screws are nice and tight.

easy job!! havent tried to see if everything is working though!! One screw is tighter than the other, but they are solid.
How scarey is it taking a drill to your beloved car?!!!

had to be very brave!! all i need now is for my new momo **** to arrive and it will all look great!
