Small holes on roof of 2025 Lightning Flash

[Vishvish]

I purchased a 2025 Lightning Flash less than 2 weeks ago and this morning I noticed 2 small holes on the roof of the cab. Looks unfinished. Does anyone have an idea of what this was supposed to be? Can anyone with a similar model take a pic of what that area on their roof looks like? I'm headed to the dealer tomorrow and will update here on what they say. Love the truck, hoping this is a an easy resolve.

Those look like roof mount points.... I don't want to say roof rack, because that is likely silly, but _truck stuff_ like that. Maybe a sweet row of lights.

After a brief google, I am wrong.

Looks like a rivet.

Nothing unusual or wrong with your truck. 2023 XLT- we all have the same pop rivet- don’t worry about it!

Thank you! It looks like one side has the rivet and one side does not!

Copy that, looks like one side of my truck has the rivet and the other does not. Thanks for the help!

Wow, looking closer I see, bring it to the dealer, the service tech should be able to put one in.

Yikes. After zooming in on OP’s photo, I see that the rivet is missing!

Ooooops.

I dropped it off today, they think the other piece may be in there but the top of it popped off!

Can I ask here:
Does this part of the truck (discussed above) allow us to add a temporary roof support for say a long ladder or a canoe/kayak?

I would like to put these types of things up on the truck without adding a headache rack permanently to the box.
If there were a way to add a roof rack supported at this trim piece, and a reciever post at the back, then a ladder or a canoe could be carried without touching the painted part of the roof ? maybe??

Looking a FORD Accessories, they only have options for Super Duty trucks, none for the F150 line.
You're stuck with Bed mounted options for F150's
