The small round holes on the top are for various license plate mounting options.
Wow that's a lot of license plate brackets. The two styles used in the US had the same bolt pattern. Inside the three square holes on each side that mounted the bumper to the front frame plates were six holes. Two for the winch, two for the license plate bracket and two for the guide for the hand crank. Outside the frame holes there was a hole on each side for fog lights and two holes on the right side for the license plate bracket when the PTO winch installed. Believe a set of holes was added to the bottom of of the bumper for a different license plate bracket that was used when a winch and fog lights were installed. Only seen factory pictures of that one posted here. Never seen one in person. Would be curious what other license plate brackets or options Toyota had that required for all the extra holes?
