Does anyone know what size drill bit is used for
attaching the EK-RES X3 250 Reservoir holders?
Thanks

The screws are 5mm I believe so a 5.5mm would be ideal

Eh? That'd leave you with a hole you couldn't tap. 4.5-4.8mm would be more appropriate to tap out to 5mm.

the res uses nuts/bolts and washers. so the hole can be slightly larger with no problems

Aha, that explains it - I was concerned by the mention of screws. In that case 5-5.5mm would be what's wanted.
