Helicoil representation in 3D model

All,

 

What do you think is the proper way to show a helicoil drilled and tapped hole in a 3D model? I have not used these in a bit. But I recall showing a drill diameter for the tap only. This to me could be somewhat misleading? I guess I am geared towards paperless designs. I'd like to show the finished tap? I don't know? The finished tap as I understand is not a standard tap size? I think I just read that SolidWorks does have the ability to add those tap sizes via its hole functionality. I do add a model of the heli-coil itself in the sub-assy that follows. Of course it's an interference fit. What are your thoughts on this? I am curious what you all think is an acceptable enough method.

 

Thanks,
