Thanks,

If you can take any scrap plastic you might have and drill the 12mm hole and check for fitment . If too large then your idea of drilling smaller and reaming out is a good one . In my case 15/32 was tight I had to work the bolt to get it in which is what I wanted to eliminate any excess play .
