Spiral saw for cutting metal?

I need to make some very accurate cuts into metal for some access panels I'm making for my baja bug. Anybody have any luck using a spiral saw or rotary saw for cutting into sheetmetal? Do they make metal cutting bits?

I don't know, but a jigsaw will work, and they make metal cutting blades for them!
