The pics I wish I had when deciding to purchase, and then installing, a soft side cab on my 2305.

Note that I'm not saying I installed everything correctly, and I'm not quite done.

Hope they help others.

Looks like you have done a great job putting it together. Looks just like mine except I didn't see a heater. I suspect it is coming, typically would install a cab without a heater, especially where you are, you get the Lake Effect goodies like we do here.......

Looks like you did a nice install I agree about need of heater....I'm so glad I found one in put in the Original Cab . Even when I had the Golf Cart Heater it was better than nothing when outside temp around 0 or below.
Enjoy

Have fun and be safe!!

Thanks! Yes, heater's coming hopefully. It was either not shipped, or lost in transit.

Nice installation, you will wonder how you did without it.

diz,

I had to grind a small notch in the panel of the cab to route the chute cable through.

Nice job. they arent difficult to put together, just awkward at times. S second set of hands is often helpful. I dont know know how I was able to survive before getting mine. :D

Looks great. I was told by the JD dealer that the cab greatly reduces the entrance area. Is that true?

Do you mean it's hard to get in and out of there? I don't think so, and I'm a big guy. I can measure the openings if you like.

I dont think that's true. I'm 6'4" 250+ and have no problems with mine. The only complaint I have is I have to adjust the seat up just a little more forward with the cab. But the benefits of the cab far out weigh this nit.
