Step 2The Box
Firstly, we must prepare the box.
All you will see on the outside is three things, the box, the LED and the chrome bezel.
To fit the chrome bezel we need to drill a hole.
In a very handy turn of events, the box I bought had a moulding feature right slap-bang in the centre of the top of the box, showing me exactly where I needed to drill. If you don't have this feature, just use a pencil to draw diagonal lines between the corners and they will cross at the centre.
I used a drill bit 9/32 of an inch. Don't know why I have an imperial sized drill bit, it just appeared...
This bit was actually a little small, by about half a millimetre. I unfortunately didn't have a larger bit so just wiggled the bit to widen the hole.
If you use an 8mm bit then you should be fine.
