    I am going to put mine on my old 342 this weekend. Any tips on how to drill the hole?
    When I putnmine on I drilled 1/2 way through from one side and then started from the other side and drilled the other half through. I think that is what the directions said to do. It worked well.

    calviroman - how difficult was it drilling the tenon on that XS? I have the Big Dot sitting in the package that I plan on installing on a 386 "pre-nightguard" and hadn't anticipated the tenon being blank when I ordered it.

    Yeah I was surprised too. I used my cordless drill and did it on the coffee table. It was easy and I have a bit of Tim the Tool Man in me.

    It was very easy. Just be sure you're drilling straight and use the correct size drill bit. I used a 1/16" and a hand drill and it worked out just fine. I also put a drop of locktight blue in the sight channel.
