Hi,I received my spoiler and the instructions. But I found the picture on the instructions is Chevrolet. I have no idea which drill bit size to use.

When using the pilot bit with the plastic centering jig the instructions called for 1/8" however this is a little to large and you drill through the side of the jig. Use a 1/16 drill bit to center everything up and then use a 5/16" drill for the final attachment holes. Your bolts should be 1/4" or metric equivalent so the extra 1/16 works well. If you do a good job applying the plastic jigs it goes very easy.

I'm used a drill bit that came in a Dewalt drill bit set...nothing unusual. Perhaps you have different screws.Sorry can't help you more.

This is a very special bit, it is not part of the bit selection which comes with the drill. You can find it at http://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/71206916 (as an example, other places online would probably have them)

Please see my review (end of May/beginning of June 2013)--I STRONGLY suggest an 11/32" drill bit for the best fit. Other sizes work; however, you may need to adapt the container or your installation process. As everyone else states, it is difficult to get these installed into certain containers & it's worth every penny!

The chuck size is 1/32" - 3/8" or 1mm - 10mm. I'd suggest reading my product review on this drill driver before deciding to purchase one.Bobby...

I would double check the size of your drill bit. I used a 5/16 and had no problem. If this don't work use a scrap piece of pvc and work your way up in bit sizes until you find one that works. Good luck

I also use it for modeling (Games Workshop; mostly grinding and cutting) and it won't fit anything smaller than a 3/16" drill bit. Although if you're looking at buying this, I hope you don't need it for more than 5 minutes, otherwise the battery will die.

I think the MAIN tool you need is a second set of hands. I tried to do it by myself and, although the bolts have a great self aligning feature built in, I managed to mess up the threads. Luckily, I had a tap and chased the threads and finished the job without further incident. Oh, all the tools you will also need is a Torx screw driver (commonly called a 'star' screw driver.) The size if I'm not mistaking is a T40. I used the T40 bit and a little 1/4" ratchet, since the screws were pretty tight, especially after being in there for 13 years. As you can see it took me much longer than most, so I suggest you get a second set of hands, for a 10-20 minute job. :-) I think the MAIN tool you need is a second set of hands.

I suggest you read the description better and listen to the other answers. These are very small and precise bits not meant for drilling.

I also would like to use a 4-jawed chuck so please post back what you have learned. I don't know what will fit my unit as I've only done some small, spindle projects. All the Best.

I had no instructions. I uses some scrap wood and adjusted the drill setting until I had what I wanted. You may be able to find some information from the manufacturer on line.

I don't remember off the top of my head what size it is but, when I first got mine I took it to Home Depot and matched it up with the insert part, to the apropreit size hole saw drill bit.

I had the same dilemma. Using a 30mm bolt and a cover...after drilling I found that the helicoil was long enough. You can use two but not necessary. I added red threebond "locktite". Using the recommended drill bit...ONE helicoil was suffificient for me.

i used the 5/16 bit and then used a deep socket 15mm attached to a power drill (with a spacer in the deep socket to keep pressure) and went slow. They drove in fine and no leaks. Wonderful.

It has to be the same chuck size. Check the drill and the bit before purchase.

I'm actually concerned as to why specifically license plates. Especially given the small and therefore concealable nature of this drill. To answer the question- on high torque this sucker will drive a 3" wood screw. Just have to push harder than you would with a bigger drill.

Assuming you're using the bits that came with drill, they all fit. Did you try opening the top, using the releaser (button on the silver part) and twisting the ridged dial? That will open the top so you can adjust to the stem of the bit... Make sure to secure it tight so it doesn't fly off or get loose during use.
