I liked your setup so well that I just ordered an Element and 2 magnetic mounts. Did you PPF the section of roll bar?
I used 3” wide clear UHMW tape under the mounts - it’s thicker and more durable than PPF.

FYI - I also used it on the door sills and on the portion of the rollbar that may contact the soft top during opening/closing to prevent scratching there too.

The bronco raptor has an additional brace in the back that looks like it bolts into those holes, so my guess is that what the holes are for. My build is a 12-18 blend and both sides have holes, my guess is that as the bronco raptor gets closer the builds will be more consistent in having them on both sides.

You made me go outside and look. Left and right are the same and they look like Raptor bar mounts on my 10/29 build. Not sure about the center hole or the inboard threaded holes though.

I’d switch those two spots. You want a fire extinguisher to be really close if a fire was to break out.

Repost from other thread, but interesting:
So I had to go outside and check. I have a 2 door Wildtrack, built 7/23, them again 10/23 and I have what appears to be a pretty beefy threaded mounting hole, maybe ½" in diameter on the top rear of each roll bar, left and right. Just one hole each. Hard to tell, sorry for dark pics, I'm parked for the night against the back of my garage wall and didn't want to move my truck.

Those holes aren’t threaded. No idea what they’re for?

I just noticed this today that my left and right bars going down into the cargo area are different.

Right side:

Nothing! Weird. So what do yours look like? Anyone have nothing on either, or holes on both?
I remember reading a post about this awhile back. Search for it...i cant remember the resolution.

I guess with the c-pillar cross bracing from the Raptor - we know what these holes are for now.
