I'm waiting on my nibbler tool to show up in the mail but I might want to just try and go ahead with the dremel instead. I want to go get some new bits for it at the home depot though depending on what I will need.

I made a templet out of plastic. I basically made a sidemarker hole in a thin piece of plastic before cutting into my fenders.
I measured out the location as per the instructions but the center of where the sidemarker would sit. Used a grease pencil and wrote on my fenders.
I put up my templet, traced it and cut away.
I used the discs for the whole process. I didnt break one disc. Used the same one for both holes.
When cutting. Slowly push the disc into the metal starting at the center of the sidemarker outline. Then slowly work your way left/right. This prevents from making the whole too big.
Start small and work make it bigger.
I actually shaved down the little ridges ON my sidemarker instead of cutting the wholes bigger.
