Door screws?

Hi I have a 70 ford and there are two screws on the door that I can not figure out why they are there. I thought maybe at one time maybe there were different mirrors but it doesn't seem to fit with any I can think of. What do you guys think? and what do you think I should do with the screws?
Thanks for your opinion.

Check out the mirrors on this truck and you'll have your answer.

Better to have them filled with something than looking at two empty holes. Leave the screws be unless there is body work in the future.

I thought about those mirrors but the screws seem a bit high on the door even for them and the mirrors that are on it look old.
I will leave the screws for now unless I can paint some screws that kinda match the truck just to make them not stick out as much.

I'm sure you are aware you can get small touch up bottles of paint at parts store or even Wallyworld that would take care of the touch up. Getting one to match? Whole nuther subject....
