still comes out pretty, u will just have a hole,

centre punch it, so the drill bit will grab clean, then get a de bur toolf rom a hardware for a couple bux, and after u've drilled the hole, clean it up by hand with the de-burrer

Yes you can buy a spotweld removal tool.

The tool is more like a mini hole saw than a drill. To use it I centre punch the spotweld for the alignment plunger then cut around the spot weld.

you can buy a spot weld drill bit from trade tools. theyre like $40-50 though..

flapped disc down where you think the spot weld is, the spot weld will be low and paint will be left ontop of it. then you know exactly where it is.

its a pain in the ass job, for sure.

spomething i made up, this ie what the drill bit looks like at the head....basically makes a perfect hole in the weld, and is a bastard to drill with as it take forever, but thats good so u dont go too far...
