cjsinla Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 The drill only needs to be smaller than the screw to work. Don't drill the hole too deep, maybe 3/4ths the length of the screw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingarmadillo Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I need to know what size pilot hole do i need to drill? how deep? I am installing a Pickguard on my 2013 SGJ. I am useing the standard #3 x 3/8 screw.. I found a "standard" that says 5/64s for hardwood and 1/16 (4/64) for soft for a #3 screw. Not longer than the screw so maybe 1/4 inch deep.
