Jump to: 4. Install the New Buttons and Joystick
I wanted extra buttons on the front panel. One to act as the hotkey in RetroPie, the other 2 as Coin buttons to be used in the MAME emulator. First find and mark where you want those buttons to go on the panel. Make sure to cover with painters tape on both sides of the panel to prevent damage to the finish when drilling the hole.
I used a 1 inch circular drill piece to make the holes. Because it was just a tad too small for the buttons, I used a Dremel bit piece to sand off the edges of the hole to make it wider. There are better drilling bits for this, however this was all I had at my own disposal and it worked great.
Make sure to test out the new buttons to make sure they fit.
Next step is to Install the New Buttons and Joystick.
