Does anyone know what these are for? I see one on each side of the tailgate, and they do not seem to attach or latch to anything.

They're another set of tie downs for when you're hauling stuff like plywood or long boards with the tailgate down.

It’s both a bottle opener and a tie down point.

It guides the railgate holder wires when the tailgate closes so it does not bind, aksi a beer bottke opener!
