^Thanks! I just ordered that. I'll see how it does.
It doesn't matter what bulbs are in the headlights, they're blocked by the FEL. So I definitely need something up higher.
The frustrating thing is the ROPS is too high to fit in my garage so I have to lower it. Gonna be more of a pain with the lights on there.

Nice looking tractor. Yup, keep it under a roof, it will still look that good in 10 years. If you don’t have ballast fluid in the rear tires, that’s something to strongly consider
I keep all my stuff under a roof. I don't like leaving stuff out.

I had them add ballast when I bought it, but reading the owners manual it says Kubota doesn't recommend rear wheel ballast if you have a backhoe. A little irritating they didn't tell me this, but I guess my tractor is extra planted now. :p

Do this with your ROPS. I let it rest on the pins and goes in garage great.
