Picked this up after Tristar posted the link to the Craigslist ad (thank you!). Nice clear domes with cut outs front and rear for the PAR 46 strobes. Also has cruise lights, though one didn't survive shipping. Quite frankly I was surprised the light did after seeing how badly the turd colored package monkeys damaged the box (literally to the point that the packing materials were falling out as they brought it to my doorstep...).

This one will be staying in the collection. I have forever missed the last one that I had and traded to 894.

So who ran clear domes with that setup? I could see clear domes with colored filters on the inside.. but just clear on clear?
 
Thats a beauty Tony. Glad it wasnt damaged too bad. I often wonder how many games of kick ball some of these shipping clowns play at 3AM with our packages.

I converted a pumper truck in my area, quite a few years ago that had an early Edge with all clear lenses, except for the center 4 strobes. I thought it was awful goofy at the time as well but...

That truck originally came from CT, too...

Probably a similar if not nearby a department!
 
Perty!!! Always wanted an 8000 with clear domes. Not easy to find, either. Love the sound of 8000, too!
 
the inner clear dome was just to diffuse the light. I have some amber beacons like that and they all had the clear dome inside. horizontal grooves with vertical grooves on the outside dome
