560D do these flat top fenders belong?.

I see this 560D in the photo ads, and I was wondering if those were the correct fenders on it?. I thought the 560 had the small clamshell type like on the H's and M's. No big deal really, but I was just wondering if they were the right ones, they do look really good, and no doubt would be better at catching the mud that the tires throw a whole lot better than those clamshell ones.

I put a set of these flat tops on my 560 that came from my 656 when I installed a cab. I liked the flat tops much better on the 560 than on the 656. On the 656 for example if you were planting corn or drilling grain at night, and the foreward position of the seating of 656, when you turned on the headland the glare of the lights prevented you from seeing the drill and row marker marks on the soil. Because your operator position on 560 was well behind the lights I found them much better on there than where originally intended. They also looked very sharp on a 560. On the 656 I mounted the lights on front of cab, thus eliminating that problem also.

I think the guys that designed head lights in flat top fenders, for tractors with foreward operator position never actually used them much. If you notice the two lights in each fender only stayed around for 06 and some of 56 series. Then they went to one light in fender and one in grill. You could then set the one out front for distance and point the one in fender down for close up of ground. I never really used one of those as my tractors after that all had cabs with lights on front of cab or in grill. John Deere and others were just as bad with lights in fenders.
