Centre a hole on different plane

Newbie but spent fair bit of time but just seem to struggle on what I guess should be very easy.

Making a wire clip for 2 screws.

Sketched the arch, found that harder than I think I should.
Padded out OK

Move onto the other plane
Want to put 2 holes in for screws, have put the holes in but cannot find a way to constrain so they are centered in each rectangle on each side.
Currently just moved with mouse.

Using external geometry I cannot quite grasp

Tried selecting anything & everything with = & <> etc etc.
center of circle, the outer circle etc.

Think must be something fundamental.
Looks so easy on youtube but never seems to match what I am trying to do.

I want to be able to adjust dimentions fair bit after so I can test strength after printing & alter as requried.

Thanks I/A

I cant agree more… It is so damn frustrating that such simple things are simply ignored. I do not get how it is not in such high version yet. I mean it literally impossible froim what i tried. Even if try to measure everything with the ruler, i cant trust it. It seems so sketchy to measure lines from STLs and NEED to rely on that… There must be something we miss because if this is the only way it would be sad tbh :frowning:
