Help finding a snowplow for a Kubota RTV500

I've been trying to find a snowplow for my kubota RTV500 but most sites list plows that will fit model years from 2009 and newer.

I bought my RTV500 new in August of 2009 but the dealer said it was a 2008 model. One snowplow dealer I talked to said he didn't even know
they made the RTV500 in 2008.

My question is, if anybody knows for sure, is the mounting system the same on the 2008 model RTV500 as the 2009 and newer models?

I wonder if we have another member with an 09 rtv500 and they would share a pic of the front end to compare with the 08 model? Worth a shot.
 
Take a look at the 10th digit/character of the VIN. Is it an 8 or 9? Although released in 2008, I'm wondering if it's a 2009. Kind of like cars where they sell the 2014 models starting in the fall of 2013.

I'd also be very surprised if they would make a major change to the frame or other systems where the plow would mount 3 months into production.
 
Thanks guys for trying to help, I'd really like to put a snowplow on this machine but don't want to buy the wrong system.
Here's a couple of pictures if they help at all. (if I upload the right).

I'd give Messick's a call. They're a great Kubota dealer and support this site.

Here's their contact page or call them at 1 (877) 260 3528.

Ask if Kubota plow kit V4308 or some other plow kit fits the 2008 model. There's a couple kits depending on whether you want a 60" or 72" plow.
