That is the spot, I held my lid together with magnets and claps and drilled straight through, you can also adjust the position of where the brow sits by slotting these holes slightly. None of the fit is final until you add the ears and they are tight. You can just make out the other holes for the ear screws but I just made the holes in the ears first, positioned them tightly onto the sides of the lid and drilled in that position, some like to just use the original holes. You can't go too wrong, putting these pieces together isn't as hard as some make it sound, good luck
