Rugged ridge hasn't made the snorkel compatible with the 2012 yet but rumors are that this spring/summer we will see either an update to the current snorkel or a new kit all together to work with the 2012.
I also vote rugged ridge, I have it on my 09 and I wouldn't go any other way.

OK LADIES lol don't think anyone's answered the OP's question tho!!!
I used a 2" hole saw to start and then an angle grinder..... worked just fine
I'm still in favour of look at my jeep it has a snorkel.... I went AEV GEN 2 snorkel

To answer the op.....I first used a small bit to make sure everything was where it should be, then used a hole saw for my cut and then a dremel to clean it up slightly where needed. I went with the volant setup which can be found for way better prices than most of the big name vendors have suprisingly

I have just installed the AEV on my 2011 Diesel: used a 2" hole saw for the corners and a Dremel cutting wheel for the straight part (AEV Snorkel on Black Boar | Black Boar)
De 2nd gen AEV works for both the petrol versions as well as with 2.8 CRD Diesel version.
