The hole is to route the wire from the monitor to the connector you're supposed to plut it into. If you didn't drill the hole, you'd have no where to put that wire that comes out of the monitor. Now, when you take down your overhead console, lay it flat in front of you so that you're standing directly in front of it as if you were the rear view mirror. Lay it down so that the beige or grey part of the console is on the counter or whatever you lay it down on. Your kit should of come with a small piece of paper that's cut out in a weird shape. You'll see a circle on it where you're supposed to drill the 7/8" hole. Put that piece of paper on the black plastic directly in front of where the monitor compartment is. The hole should go on the rounded part of the black plastic. Dont worry, you wont see the hole once you put your console back up since it's on the back of the console. I hope that made sense.

If it wasn't such a bitch to line up the little brackets on the console, I'd take it down and take some pictures for you of where the hole goes.
