1. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation and PDC fitting instructions
to determine the locations and exact size of the hole for the PDCs to
be fitted (some bumper panels have location markings on the inner
surface).
2. Drill pilot hole: refer to Figure 2: use the supplied drill bit (A) to drill
through the centre of the marked location position. Wear eye protection
when drilling.
3. The five sets of reaction plates (C), dies (D) and punches (E) supplied will
enable ten different hole sizes to be punched. Once the diameter of the
hole has been decided, choose the correct reaction plate, die and punch
for the specified hole size.

Figure 3 or 4. Refer to the markings on the die and punch; ensure that
the desired hole size dimensions are facing each other, for example for a
26mm hole, the 26mm die faces the 26mm punch; for a 32mm hole, the
32mm die faces the 32mm punch, etc.
5. Refer to Figure 5: on the inner surface of the panel use a 12mm socket
