I wouldn’t be too scared of drilling holes, hundreds of us have done it, manufactures and dealers do the same thing. You’d end up with much better results, and alot more options for mounting whatever you desire. A couple of Yakima tracks, permanently installed correctly would be 100 times better than clamping on to a gutter, which was never meant to be load bearing. If you do, i’d suggest you remove, and reinstall the gutters with upgraded fasteners, and make sure they are actually attached to some structure, instead of just simply “attached”.
