Joel, When I did mine, I over-drilled the holes and then used the bent tip of a nail to widen the area between the glass even more, then it was filled with West Six10 epoxy. When that dried, I redrilled holes. This way you never have to worry about water getting into the core. Just be careful that you are gently with the drill when doing the new holes and don't break the epoxy. Then put butyl tape to the base of the clutch and you are all set.
