Normal when the top has been replaced or covered over- Yours? Sorry dude.

Stock roof is flat with two front to back narrow rectangular recesses centered on roof. Can look under interior roof liner to see what was done.

Ya - I just found out it had a sunroof at some point that was removed and repaired.  No worries though.  The repair looks fine.  I was told that an entire top section above the flood channels (think that what they are called) can be purchased and installed.  I bought it to drive and enjoy not to show or collect so it will likely stay as is.
