You're right about that.

I often use generic or Harbor Freight unibits for odd tasks like that,
and use a small regular bit to open up a starting hole. Once you're in,
it's easy. Too easy. I have on more than one occasion opened up a
somewhat larger hole than I had planned. I tell Mrs Squirrel that I
always thought a 3/4'' brass hose bib would look handsome on the dash.
