Mine came with the MMC rack and it came with the clamp mounts and did not require any drilling.

Your rack is the original type supplied by MMC.
The brackets with the pins are bolted to the front of the rack. The other two brackets with length of tube welded to them are bolted through the roll hoops, you will need to drill the roll hoops to fit. The pins that you have bolted to the front of the rack then go into the tubes bolted to the roll hoops.
As Planenut says there are alternative ways to fit without drilling the roll hoops, using roll bar clamps or homemade clamps.

Christ I don't fancy drilling. I will look at Mark H's solution first.

I bought the later clamp fitting rack. Not impressed. The angles bored through the clamp halves did not match the angle of the roll hoops. When the clamps were tightened the sliding dowels for the quick release locked solid. Only way to make the quick release system work, leaving the clamps tight on the roll hoops, was to drill the two outer dowel holes from 8mm to 10mm. Not what you expect for an accessory costing over £1000. (Dealer wanted an extra £80 to fit it - I now understand why). I always thought Harley accessories were expensive, but at least they fit.
