      Tape the 4.0 mm (0.157 in.) drill bit to prevent the drill bit from going too deep.

      WARNING:

      Be careful of the drilled No. 3 windshield outside moulding clips, as they may be hot.

      NOTE:

      • Pressing the drill too firmly will cause the No. 3 windshield outside moulding clip to turn and result in the No. 3 windshield outside moulding clip not being drilled through.
      • Prying the No. 3 windshield outside moulding clips with the drill may damage the No. 3 windshield outside moulding clip installation holes or drill bit.
