i used one of those door noob cutters that you buy at Home depot in my friends car, worked great, just look for the same diameter a the cage's pipe.

edit if you are looking for what angle to cut the panel at is totally up to you. we took the panel off that usaully has the rear speakers on the side and stuck a small length pipe. and used some math and common sense.

better to cut it too small, and then slowly work the opening to fit snug around the roll cage points. Then after you've dremeled all the edges smooth, get some thin rubber trim, kind of like tiny weather stripping, and line the edge of your cut plastic so it leaves a nice clean edge and also keeps everything nice, tidy, and quiet...
