Locking tuners for Squier Tele? (www.thomann.de)

I'd like to put above tuning machines in my Squire Telecaster, but I wonder if they will fit into the headstock without drilling the holes wider and the axles have the correct length.
The given measurements are not that helpful. Opinions, or other suggestions?

I recently swapped some 2005 Mex Tele tuners with these

They fit perfectly and are also staggered

Not sure if Squier are the same

Thanks, I proceeded as described above and it worked just fine. The new tuners’ axles indeed are a little shorter than those of the ones the guitar came with, but everything seems tolerable.
