Open the modules panel on the top / side of the prawn suit, and you can equip arms there

Open the upgrades panel on the PRAWN, that automatically opens your inventory as well. Drag and drop the drill arm, from your inventory, onto one of the arm slots for the PRAWN. That will install the drill arm on your PRAWN suit.

What key do you press to open the prawn's upgrade panel? Do you right click? Left click? Do you press T? Do you press Z? I am standing infront of the prawn.

The PRAWN suit, just like the seamoth, has an upgrades panel you actually have to interact with. It's on the top, left hand side next to the top hatch and forward of the power cell on that side.

Same way you get into a base hatch: left click.

It didn't work. I left click on the upgrade panel, but for some reason, it always puts me into the prawn.

I know this is a couple of months later, but I figured out the answer. When you are in a moonpool, you cannot access the updates while it is docked. Instead, get in and let it stand still. Get out of the Prawn underwater and then you can access the upgrade slots. Took me about 10 minutes trying from every angle in the moonpool, before I thought of this idea. I hope this helps!
