Default RXV OEM SOC METER - What size hole to drill?!

Hi Everyone,
I bought a factory state of charge meter for my 2008 RXV. It has the extra wire behind the dash to hook up the meter to. Does anybody know what size hole saw I should buy do drill out the factory dash for the meter?
Thanks!

The OEM gauge plugged right in to the factory harness and everything works great. The 2 inch hole saw is the exact size and I picked that up at home depot for $8. It's an easy install.

I just did mine last week using a dremel bc we needed that to do the lights as well. It worked fine as im sure a hole bit will too.

And yes it does plug into the harness that is part of the RXV non-freedom model. If your also adding lights and want to mount the OEM switch to the left of the SOC meter on the dash, you need a work around bc the OEM switch is meant to be plugged into a harness...the one you just used for the SOC meter...go figure.
