Tabs broke off of your Cyclopes side panels? I like the factory look as much as possible. And didn't want to put holes all the way through the side panel and have a bolt head sticking out the side. Picture of one before and one I already fixed. Get a drill bit that fit the hole where the tab is broke. run it through, keep strait with original hole. use old tab as a guide. Then cut the old tab off flush. Now you have to clean out that plastic on the back side. I started out with a die grinder. After cleaning the bulk of it out with the die grinder. Now I used a piece of flat brass. Sniped the end to give it the right angle. And heated it up red hot and sliced and pulled the rest of the plastic out of the corners. Then grind one side of the head off a bolt even with the shaft. Might have t run the bit through again to clean it out. Then slide the bolt in. And finish it with a rubber o-ring or a piece of rubber hose. The rubber will help absorb shock and also aline the bolt in the huge hole in the grill. Screw on a washer and wing nut.

![]() I did something similar but I drilled and tapped the plastic then glued a 3/8" stud in with 3M structural adhesive.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
