More secure tailgate access cover bolts to aid in theft prevention?

[AMG]

perhaps security torx, or some other design? I know of the ones that exist for the tail lights and such, but what about these? ford pn W719042-S450B, tailgate access cover bolts. simple torx or flathead. I am not sure of the thread pitch or size, could check later, but more concerned right now about the head. I suppose could fill them in with JB weld and simply cut the notch with a dremel should I ever need to get in there (unlikely).

I don't have a suggestion, but just wanted to thank you for working in the high crime areas. I don't currently live or work in an area where this sort of theft would occur, but there is important work to do in those areas. Thanks for doing that work!

My tailgate does not open without the keyfob or PAAK.

Mine has a security thing on the one side. Never had an issue in owning trucks since 2013.

I put a tailgate lock on the right pivot to slow them down should they decide to make the mistake of trying to mess with my truck. Security screws on the tail lights. By the time they get halfway done, they'd find themselves looking down the barrel of a .40.
