Yes, including a hole for the wire to go through. This isn't a wah is it? I'd have thought it was common sense

You can get a tap and tap the x member, its thick enough for something like that, I drilled and tapped mine so I could fit a chequer plate cover but still be able to quickly remove n clean behind now n again

M6 12.9 socket caps in BZP n copperslip should avoid any 'rusting in' issues
