Greetings,
Since I usually keep my stuff until it's used up, I use it and make it like I want it but am very careful about compromising the structural integrity - there are no "lightening holes" in my ROPS or hoe boom!
The old IH 424 may be the exception as it just keeps going and going.....but it has seen numerous modifications and additions as it's been in the family since '68...and since it gets fairly regular maintenance and repairs when required, is _SHOULD_ still be here after I am gone!
Already mounted a dual cupholder (With tiewraps, no holes) and a tool box on the fender (yeah, holes) to the "new to me" Kubota L35TLB.
I don't understand why the manufacturers can't put a simple cup holder on equipment as it's probably the most added gadget out there....but adding "stuff" to your toys to make your use easier, safer or more functional is half the fun!
