# I must inform you
that neither the driver bits nor the drill bits you need are worth a wank. They are always made of toffee.
Just spend a tenner on a set of tungsten coated bits.
btw, if you are drilling into an internal cavity wall then you don't need the bits or the drill for that matter ;)

to tell you where the wires are.

# well it's quite a heavy mirror.
It's pulled a nail and a non-rawplugged screw out thus far, so I'm thinking throw power at it.

# as I said.
depends if you have a cavity or not.
solid brick needs brown plug, 2" 8 screw and a number 7 masonry drill bit.

Plasterboard cavity needs a metal cavity wall fixing, hammer and number 3 philips screwdriver.
