Who manufactured the cab? If you can find a mfg label or serial, we might be able to tell you what came with it originaly.

It was Boot Cammp made by Konami.   I see a Konami sticker on the back but no other markings.

the only 25 that comes to mind that'll fit in your space (with a little modification) is the hantarex mtc 25 ev/2.  to make it work - you would have to bend the side and top mount ears back - and make a shelf that the monitor sits on (there are bottom mounting slits 

but.....

if you live in the states - this badboy will have to be shipped from sambers in italy.  the journey is ROUGH on the monitor (and their packing really isn't suitable).  mine got chipped and had a bent frame when it arrived.

heaven forbid you ever have to make a claim with UPS Italy - took me over 5 months to get my money.... 

every other 25 i've ever seen is larger - and most likely won't fit in your cab.  i'd consider something smaller - although i do appreciate the need to have the largest monitor possible :)
