Trimming instrument bezel

Hi Guy's ... What have you used to trim the bezel to fit DIN radio's? I've used a dremel on a practice bezel with a bit of plastic melting... what else would work to cut nice clean, straight lines?????

I just got doing mine. I used a coping saw, but it is still not as clean as I would have liked. I ended up buying a piece of platic from a car stereo place and made a little dress plate to go between the factory bezel and my face plate cover. It came out pretty good. It just takes a lot of measuring and trimming.
