  4. Will a 14 mm drill bit fit in the chuck of a hand drill?
     
  5. No. Why do you ask?
     
  6. To drill the 14 mm holes
    I meant an electric drill not a hand powered drill
     
  7. I meant that the holes are enormous.

    Cutting holes bigger than a few mm in sheet metal, better to use a firtree cutter (Screwfix one is good). Big holes with a twist drill never work out, as the flutes of the drill catch and you end up with a right raggedy mess. The firtrees cut a nice clean hole as big as you like - recommended.

    They work perfectly normally, pull the stalk towards you and the HID high beams burn a hole in the back window of the car in front.

    Actually, the headlights are LED and I seldom get close enough to anything with a back window.
