Time to fit my Expressed A Pillar now. Wasn’t aware I had to cut openings for hinges, hinge strap and door light switch (only most are square holes). No problem but want it to look original even though no one sees it. Any suggestions for how to do theses? I’m thinking round holes matching each corner the bigger holes for guts and a final file.
Also has anyone actually just used a spot welder to replace it? Seems like a bugger to drill holes everywhere to plug weld it back on. Would a cheap spot welder do a better job? I’ve got a fair bit of panel work to do on this car but really I want this to be perfect like my White V6 I sold this year.

Cheers. Made a template and ready to go. It just seems easier with a spot welder and new panel. Old panel maybe not.
