Some people use one of the handy jigs for for this.
When I haven't already drilled the screw hole in the aluminum mounting piece yet, but am still using the #40 pilot hole, and I want to drill the holes for the ears, I use a K1000-06 nutplate as a jig. The ear holes are the same and a #40 cleco holds it nicely in place.
No special jig needed.
