Just wondering where you fellas put your sign , if you have one ? My seat base ( left of the seat ) has a couple 1/4" holes that I might could use . I sometimes drive around the neighborhood and don't wanna get hit . THANKS !!

In my opinion, if they can't see an Orange tractor, they won't see the sign! , but the law is the law. Tracy

Make a bracket that uses existing holes. Save your sheet metal Those two holes you mentioned will work fine.Tracy

A sign tied to the seat suspension with a piece of baler twine is what I use.  Easy to put on, easy to take off.

The federal law that authorizes the use of the SMV sign on vehicles travelling under 25 MPH on public roads requires that it be mounted 4'to 6' from the ground on the rear of said vehicle. This has been law since the early 70s.
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY
