I was wondering what these two bolt holes in the trunk were used for? I have two bolts and it looks like the ends were cut off. They were just sitting in the holes.

Might have been intended to fit a shoulder harness attach bracket? Required for some sanctioned races.

Possible an attempt to add 2 brackets at 90 degree angle to each other and tilted 45 degrees from verticle so as to allow 2 shoulder belts, driver and passsenger? I didn't drill these holes and don't know what the builder was drinking so no further guess work from me !!!!
