Stupid pointless question about fenders

I saw some nice pictures awhile back of a Farmall 656. It had flattop fenders with twin headlights buried in them. I began to wonder which Farmall tractor models had this style fender. I intend to restore my M. Still, with the front loader, the original lights bounce off the bucket occasionally, and always at the wrong time. I was thinking if I could rig a pair of these fenders onto my M when I was working, I could see better. If I wanted to show the tractor, I could always re-install my M (reproduction) fenders. I already have 12v electrics and a fairly large alternator. (And didn't have to cut the hood to get it to work!) So, I'm sure I could rig the lights OK. I'm not really thrilled with the idea of altering my M this way, but I want to keep my options open. If I do go this route, I want the fenders to be in house when I paint the tractor, so that the paint matches. So, which tractors had these fenders? What is your opinion on the idea?
