The plastic used for the surround panels is usually quite pliable and takes some unearthly force to crack or split it. Just drill carefully after measuring up and checking at least three times. If you need a hole that has a flat on one side, file it out carefully checking with the socket regularly to make sure you don't file too large a hole.
