Holes for Tachometer and Clock

All,

I'm looking to add holes in my dash for a tachometer and clock. Any advice on the best method (punch, hole saw)? Any diagrams showing exact distance the center of these holes should be from surrounding gauges? Thanks for your help.

I used a hole saw when I put mine in years ago. It was a challenge to keep it a nice smooth hole, but can be done. I don't have the exact measurements, but I'm sure someone here does.

I used a hole saw in a drill press. I clamped the dash down solid on a piece of wood. I have the drawing on the computer, I will up load in a bit when I get to the comuter.
