The problem is with the license plate lights as well, as the 'vert license plate lights bolt onto the body, and people often forget that if you are trying to make 'vert lights fit on a coupe. Unlike the coupe the 'vert license plate lights are seperate from the tail lights.

and of course there is the key hole on the vert lights not found on the coupe.

If there is a keyhole, wouldn't you have to drill for the keyhole to fit in the existing light fixture
