Just curious of everyone's opinions. Good or bad? Pros and cons. I'm really hesitate about drilling three inch holes in my livewell lid

Drill em.....can't hurt.....let's obnoxious gas out of the live wells......frisky fish in 90 plus degree water......yet to lose a fish.
Best thing I have ever done for fish care. Don't try to do some $5 hardware store fix.....These things are specifically designed to do what they do. You can run your pumps 1/2 as much and the fish will be twice as lively.
Best $$$$ you can spend on a boat in my opinion.
But does it help on C models with plexiglass slides? I think air will move around but seems like you'd need to drill several holes in plexiglass

Can't hurt. Look for a 3in hole saw to borrow, or you'll spend $20 drilling 2 holes, and use anti-seize lube to prevent galling when tightening the ss bolts.
I have everything but the nerve to drill the holes lol. I guess it isn't going to weaken the lid or cause any negative affects to anything
I love mine. Don't do like my brother did and use a 4 inch hole saw, let's just say he wasn't real pleased with his results lol.
I probably wouldn't have installed them myself, but I bought a used boat that had them and I will install them on any new boats I get. Just fished on Barkley with 91/92 degree surface temps. No dead fish! I haven't noticed any weakening of the livewell lids. All of my other lids could use some stiffening though :(.

run the hole saw backwards to get it started through the carpet so it doesn't grab and tear a big chunk out of it.
Could you just swap out the handles for these and then not have to cut additional holes? Then cut the bottom o

That is what I was worried about! How to keep the hole saw from destroying the carpet

Turn one forward; turn the other backward. Tell me the difference. I'm buying neither. Give me the physics.
