Sometimes what should be a simple job causes me the worst time. I’m wanting to mount some LED taillights on the RV. Because it’s a toy hauler the only brake lights are in the bumper (down low) , as most of the rear is the ramp door. To either side of the ramp is a square tube steel frame. I figured I could drill a hole from underneath and fish the wires through this frame. I have very limited access to where I have to drill and the steel is about 3/16” thick. I tried using a 1/2” hole saw bit (the kind used for making holes in sheet metal) for rust proofing. Well , it was like cutting down a tree with a nail file. I’m going to have to devise a plan B.
Which reminds me, RUSS, when you put down the ez track, did you go all the way through the frame and use a nut, or tap the frame cross tube and just bolt into the top of it?
In fact, I just made a note to pick up the largest one they have. That 3 pc set is really good, just drill a regular pilot hole first, they're not good at starting their own hole.
Are you sure there aren't any wires behind where you're cutting/drilling? Be embarrassing to chew a wire or two.

Edit- I have been toying with the idea of installing seat track and removing the EZ-Track. Much smaller profile
