Ok the R&G mounts are installed. Now you want to put the panels on and then drill a small hole and get it as close to the center of the mounting hole as possible. Just eyeball the mount and try and get as close as you can so that way you can see the mounting hole behind the side panel. Then you can use your favorite grinding tool to hone out the hole larger while at the same time moving the hole left right, up and down, while enlarging it, until it is centered on the mounting hole.

I quickly just drilled a small hole and went to work with a air di-grinder. If you don't have anything like that then you are forced to use a rat tail file or something like that to enlarge the hole. Using a small hole saw is kinda risky and I would leave that tool in your drywall work box. As you know these panels are too expensive to chop up with a saw.



Get the vaccuum on standby cuase the plastic sawdust gets everywhere!
