Cheap & cheerful countersunk fastener tip. You could take more time making a punch set to hammer or press these perfectly, but with a little care this will get it done.
(Note that you will end up with the hole slightly stretched/oversized doing it this way)

Countersunk (CSK) screws are measured differently — and this small detail can save you from big fitting problems.
Always measure from the top of the head to the tip.

I've been in prototyping a long time. One of the best things you can do is validate every component as it arrives. Open every bag, inventory and check everything. Here I'm testing some countersunk rivnuts.

Countersinking screws elevates craftsmanship by creating a flush, seamless surface that hides the fastener head beneath the wood. Unlike surface-driven screws, which protrude and disrupt grain flow, countersunk heads sit level or slightly recessed, allowing plugs or filler to conceal them entirely. This prevents snags, improves aesthetics, and enables smooth finishes like varnish or paint. Structurally, it distributes load evenly, reducing splitting and enhancing joint strength. True artisans countersink to honor material integrity and achieve polished, professional results—elevating functional work to enduring art.
We love this video from @cheshiremum_ showing us how easy it to do some DIY loft storage! Here are the handy Wickes products she used to achieve this:

Here’s the formula:
Glue the edge
Align the parts
Nail the part to hold it in place while drilling pilot holes
Drill the countersunk pilot hole
Fire in a screw
It’s faster, more precise, and makes much more sense IF you don’t have to hide the fastener.
That being said, if you need a hidden fastener, use a pocket hole.
Otherwise, save your time
FXR-NUK | taillight . Pretty straight forward, made it so it would fit seamlessly inside the rear fender. The led light is countersunk into the mount. Pocketed the back side so it didn’t feel so chunky. Added a circular toolpath for the surface finish starting at the light and radiating out. Tabbed machined so everything was done in 1 operation | @sandiegocustoms
