Author Topic: Does 87-93 lx lens fit on a 1986 coupe? eparyda ¯ Member # 5715 posted                              I got a 86 coupe. I want to buy the 87-93 lx red tail lights. Would they fit? I have seen them on other 85-86 mustangs. Should I just buy the lens or the LX Tail Lamp Assembly Kit? Is there a modification I need to do so it can fit? Please help me out here.

Id put some new silicone in the gap though, to keep moisture and condensation out ditch the old lenses, they're fukkin ugly!!! -------------------- RIP Russell W.

Dont use too much though, as it will ooze out when you press the lenses in -------------------- RIP Russell W.

Thats about it. In my opinion your making the right choice I like the 87-93 style lenses a lot better -------------------- 87 Fox- Restoration in progress 2014 Tacoma DCLB MGM 2017 Prius Prime (The Daily) Posts: 2655 | From: SF Bay Area | Registered: Sep 2005  |  :
