Realized that I have two bolt holes in the back that go all the way through. Does anyone know what I need to plug these holes?
What do I need to plug these holes?

Can you show a broader picture, showing a larger area

Thanks, it’s not easy to represent the true location. I hope this picture works out. I took it from the back looking forward. No back seat.

No back seat?, so no seat belt dangling from the roll bar?
The spot welds around the hole are reinforcement for the seat belt mount.
You can get creative and stop at the hardware store for a couple of black plastic plugs. That way you won’t have a bolt head and it would blend in better.

Cheapest and easiest route will be to go to a hardware store and find some that fit. Or find a plastic plug.
Plastic plugs are cheapest and should work fine.
Heck, I put foam ear plugs in mine to keep the bedliner I was spraying on from getting in the threads. It was at least a year later before I realized they were still there and put the bolts back in.

Just put some plugs in there. Would look better than a bolt...cheaper and less hassle.
If that’s the route to go then just some black RTV and call it a day.

Determine the size and thread pitch; install a threaded plug with teflon tape around the threads. You should be able to locate what you need from Ababa Bolt. Mc Faddendales or a similar hardware store.
ay, if you don't have to run get it and it's easy enough to tear out if you ever need the hole again, why not?

I personally would just get a bolt that fits and put it in. Jeep the threads safe in case you want to use them in the future.
