Every winter blowing snow, I think about having an enclosed cab for my BX25d. Curtis Cab 6000 bucks! That’s hard to swallow. Are there any used ones or other options to purchase, not build one?
BX25d cab?

Long shot finding a used one.
Limited options on other makers, it's an old model that's fallen out of the current loop.

Unfortunately, I just sold the Curtis hard cab from my BX25D this past fall. No need for it in the south really, but it had come installed on my tractor when I bought it out of Maryland. Trying to figure out how to price it was hard since I hadn't seen any others for sale anywhere. Sold it pretty quickly for $3,500+shipping on Craigslist of all places.
The Canadian firm Tektite still shows a cab for the BX25/BX25D:

Not cheap either, but in CAD dollars ($6600 CAD). Shipping will cost as well...
It replaces your current ROPS.

If you want cheap and don't want to build one, a compromise may be a canopy or frame with a vinyl golf cart "cab". It wouldn't be my choice, but some people are happy with them.
Original Tractor Cab, out of Indiana, works great and it’s reasonable

I wanted a hard cab for my L47. Curtis is the only game in town.
At $10k they are pricy, but then so are factory cabs in similar size tractors.
There is no free lunch.
