I don't have a readily available brochure handy, so I'm curious to know what the intended purpose of the zipper in my headliner is for. Here's a pic for your reference:

Zipper in the headliner?

It's so you can install/remove a detachable beacon on a hearse/ambulance combo. It your coach had a beacon at one time there should be some sort of hole in the roof and a wire tucked up in there too. If it never had one then they might not be there, but the headliner was installed for one.

Access to the removeable beacon/siren from ambulance service to funeral service for the combo's. Most ambulances have them as well in several places for access to the wires for emergency equipment. Stash hideaway area.

Those beacons are removable? Not from what I've seen. I mean I guess you can remove them but it takes effort.
Removable to me are the models with magnets and cigarette lighter power adapter on the end.
SuperSnake if you have the zipper and if the spot on top looks faded or lacking from where one used to be, you should try to find a strobe to put up there. Some people really like them, others not so much. I like to turn mine on when backing out of places because people are idiots and the more safety features I have the better.

Yea the old "gumball" bubble lights were detachable with a big wingnut & quick disconnects on the wiring. A smooth plug with a rubber seal on the bottom of it was kept in the glovebox usually & got drawn in with the same wingnut to keep water out & fill the hole.
