Step 1. Go to Lowes three times. First to pick up hole saws - one for the sink drain and one for the faucet. Of course, they can't be the same size. Second trip to Lowes look for some longer hoses or way to connect the wrong connector from the wall and an extension for the drain. Wrong size (of course), so back to Lowes for a third time. This time got the correct size ( 1 1/4" ) drain. And a very cool older guy showed me how to correct the hose problem. Use a nipple to connect two hoses to correct both the length issue and the coupling issue.
Step 2. Rough out the back of the vanity for access to the pipes. Drill the holes for the sink and faucet. Install everything onto the vanity and position it by the wall.
After connecting the drain and the water connections this is how it looked under the vanity. Kind of ugly but it will get the job done.
Step 3. Test the connections and yes it works! Actually it took about a dozen attempt to get all the leaks fixed. But, yes it does work.
Here is how it looks installed with everything is but the doors. We did lose one drawer to accommodate plumbing. So we cut out the back of the drawer under the sink. Just need to put in the doors and the vanity is done.
