Just hold your dash blank against it, or a piece of card/wood to make a pattern, and run a pencil or scriber aroun#d the scuttle outside edge.

with plastic, id personally go with a very sharp stanley knife, just take you time, make sure the first score line is perfect, and each time you do it
after it will follow that, just nice and slow til it breaks through then clean up with a small file

2nd a sharp knife, but be veeeery careful not to slip and do it on the reverse side, I would also make it slightly over sized and use fine sand paper
to finish
