[6pack] Cutting antenna hole in new fender

I've never done it myself but I would not be comfortable trying to get a 
hole saw type drill bit to stay centered on a non flat fender. A 
knockout punch makes a nice hole but again only on flat surfaces. I 
would use a step drill.

In any case the base of the antenna should cover any minor imperfections.
