12mm drill bit?!?!
 
I was about to install my koni/s.techs when I realized I needed to buy a 12mm drill bit. I've checked home depot, sears, autozone and oreilys and nobody has it!! Does anyone know where I could find one??

thanks

Sam

I got mine at home depot. (when I installed my Koni's)
Tell them you need a bit that will drill 12mm and they'll size one out for you. (I forget which size it is...)

Try any good local hardware store, we have a place called Elliots down here in Dallas that has everything under the sun. Also try Harbor Freight if you have one in Houston.

That 12mm is .472 inches or about .003 inches larger than 15/32".

They are not going to fab anything they will do the conversion to inches which someone already gave you a 15/32 that is very close. Use it and wiggle the drill around slightly after you drill the hole and it will be just right.
