i dont have one but i think it would be easier to just put it on first and then cut the hole out. correct me if im wrong but wouldnt that be easier?

when u first put the hood on it gets in the way of the plastic, almost like a teeter-totter. b/c the scoop part like on my gors down, so u sorda have to guess on where to cut the hole, it doesnt really matter how big it is, just as long as u leave like a half an inch or so of plastic for strength so the plastic isnt all flimsey!!
