They're used for display models. The molder just runs a clear material instead of the usual resin. They're not super-clear because they've not been polished as much as would be necessary.

These clear hoods are not listed on Deere parts, so you can't just order one from Deere as a replacement. I'd be curious as to how this one became available.

The buyer says they were being sent to the crusher and he happened to snatch it up. A member said that they saw these hoods on a tractor at HD one time.
