Holes in roll bar. Do they have a purpose?

Removed hard top today and saw these holes in the roll bar. Do they have a use?

The rear ones are for the soft top mounting brackets. The front ones I believe are for mounting the seatbelts on the opposite sides. Note the seat belt location on the ear bar and how the bolt passes through.

Thanks. I figured the seat belt mounting was involved. Maybe I can locate a plug or bolt to fill in.

Im thinking about tapping thole all the way through and fabricating a paddle board mount.

The blank holes in the roll bar are the right size for a 3/8-NC tap.

Here is one creative use for them:

older thread I know... but are there some kind of covers or trim to cover the rear soft top attachments?

my Jeep JL 2-door came with a hardtop so it looks a little weird when I take the top off and see this - seems unfinished...

not looking to get roll bar padding...

thanks!
