I did not have a 1-1/8" drill bit so I used the finder wash as a template and used a jig saw to cut the hole (cleaned it up with a die grinder but a file will work) there was a seam on the latch side of the can so I had to do this on the hinge side. I makes it a little backward but I wanted the best possible seal.
