9.Drill 3/8" holes at each mark.
10.Using a straight edge and pencil, connect the outer edges of the 4 holes for the rectangle (see Figure 10). This will give you cutting lines for the rectangle you will cut in the wall.

14.Insert wall anchor, wings first, into hole. Tap anchor flush to wall.
15.For thin walls (1/2" or less), insert red key into wall anchor. Push red key to “pop” open anchor wings. See Figure 12. IMPORTANT: Do not hammer key! For thick walls (over 1/2" thick), do not pop open wings.
16.Position wall switch assembly vertically over wall openings with decal lettering upright (see Figure 13).
