Default Cutting the holes for the gauges in the covering

Hi guys while we are at it..at what stage do you cut the leather or vinyl to accommodate the gauges.
Assuming one has cut the dash blank gauge holes, I next cover the blank with its appropriate backing and cover. What or how much backing have you guys chosen to go with...(slight padding or not). Last step do you now turn it over and cut out each circle with an exacto knife? Did you leave something to fold inwards and glue down or do you rely on the guage to clamp it? Also I assume any gauge bezel will cover most edges.

Tell me how you guys went about the task?

Tim
