For you fellows with no cup holder

   / For you fellows with no cup holder #31  
Here's mine.
Added an expanded metal screen to the ROPS on my Mahindra 5525 for backside protection when mowing.
The screen is a convenient mount for a magnetic cup holder.
Screen is attached to the ROPS with hose clamps.

,,,,,,,,,,,Magnet? :confused2:

Yep that cup holder has a small hole in the bottom that accepts a piece of 1" pvc pipe. It ships with a chunk of PVC with a magnet attached to it. You could make any other attachment you wanted with PVC.

Guess it wasn't this thread, but in a similar thread, a Kubota owner noted that his right fender's built-in cup holder was loose... mine was as well, to the point of wearing off the paint around the cup holder's edge where it constantly wiggled. After re-finishing the area, I put some U shaped soft vinyl glass gasket from a cheap triple track window frame around the opening, and it was perfect for tightly holding the cup holder when it was snapped back in. It's in the details.

Nice! This gives it a slight interference fit and helps to grip it. I will try this with mine as it tends to come off with the cup, when I take a drink...Annoying it is! :confused2:

Good tip and thanks. :thumbsup:
