No, they're not the same. Coupe lights are longer, and the center section with the license plate does not have an opening for a lock. You could probably bolt them up with a vert center section, but it would look odd.

Just get coupe lights. They're cheaper anyway.

The convertable taillights are the SAME tail's that are common to all european RX7's. The only differance being that the USDM convertable tails have a center section that has a lock set, a euro-spec set of 86~91 rx7 lights have a wider plate bracket (which is the same size as the vert center plate bracket). So you could buy the convertable taillights, but you would need either a eurospec plate bracket or the vert bracket (leaving out the trunklock mechanism.)
