Most people go all the way through, but in fact you don't need to, and if you stop before you get to the front face it's easier to put the original bushings back if you ever want to.

Re: the Grovers - I'll let someone with exprience of those answer for sure but when I swapped to kind of similar Schaller ones, I had to drill new screw holes because the screw holes were off to the side. I think with those ones being at the bottom it would just depend if they line up with the existing ones or not, looks like they quite possibly would.
Incidentally; on my main LP I've got the Grovers, but I much prefer the look of the originals - are there any good LP original style tuners that will fit into the hole of the Grovers?
(Sorry to hijack the thread!)
The product code for the specific ones that look like the originals but are locking is SD90-SLNMG-T
A quick Google suggests it might be quite hard to find in stock apart from eBay
Any particular reason you want to change them?

Schaller G-Series tuners will fit the 10 mm holes or Faber Kluson style with bolt bushing will as well.
If they were a drop-in fit it would be sensible, but given that there's nothing wrong with the stock tuners and it will need wood removing from the headstock, don't.
