Ford Tailgate Extender - Rivets question

[FriarPop]

Hello, I got a ford maverick tailgate extender accessory but no instructions, I see 4 rivets for the kit but cant seem to find a use for them. The Youtube video i see also says they forgot to use them but edited the part out. Any idea what they are used for?

Thanks so much!! I really appreciate it, I didnt see any predrilled holes and was curious. Thanks for sharing I have to put them in there now.

Honestly I only found your post because I was trying to see if anyone else put them in.

Edit: It's not very hard, it was user error on my end.

I'm slow, it took me awhile to find the rivits in instructions. They are in step 15.
