This is a good question. I wanted to know this. So where abouts do you drill the holes. If I was to use a mk1 grill how would all edgeing stay on? Im a simpleton and would like some pics if possible.

see here for the serving suggestions (for mk1) (mk2 on. should just rivet the surrounds to the grille)

P.S with the mk 1 style, you have to drill a hole each side of the grille between the slats.
