Wai's 20.00 a hole (i think) and about the same for bulk heads.
Some reefers also have the drill bits. You can also buy them from real cheap to $$

Laird plastics is one there are many others also, just look in the yellow pages under Plastics.
Be prepared to spend a good chuck of cash. Acrylic isnt cheap.
