If you just want to drill two holes in aluminum, they will work, but those
Harbor Freight bits are not much harder than copper wire. Check Enco, MSC or
Travers and you can find a US made set that doesn't cost much more and will
last a lot longer.

  Another good choice is:

http://www.rutlandtool.com/

Their selection of tooling usually includes choices between American-made and foreign made, so you can pay for the quality you need and no more.  Not that some foreign tools aren't every bit as good as U.S. - it's tough to beat the quality of Mitsutoyo instruments - but QC on tools from, say, India won't be as good as from well-known U.S. manufacturers, so the quality can vary significantly from one month's production to the next.
