do it at home. go get yourself a 3.50" hole saw bit for the electric drill. only takes 30 sec to cut the hole.

naw, I used a dremel and it worked allright....probably a little sloppier than a drill would be, but it all works out in the end, and you can't see the hole anyways once everythings installed.

Yeah its really easy to cut it, just buy the hle cutter from homedepot and then it takes two seconds to cut the hole.

A dremel tool would do it.

-OR -

Go to Home Depot and rent a power drill and buy the bit. Rental cost on the tool is nil. Get a saw that plugs into the wall.

Much quicker and cleaner this way.
