now the 4 digits at the top of the first 2 pics are the last 4 of the VIN.....which is cool seeing Mera X is in at 9384.

Dan, Thanks for working out the history of our Mera's conversion labels ! The variations have always intrigued me and now we know what the factory did. Top rate detective work :*) J

I sent my MERA letters in to Billet Badges for them to scan in. They are going to see if they can reproduce them exactly as the original letters are shaped but with the quality of their nose badges. Fingers crossed! The big question is how many people are in need of the rear truck MERA letters? Obviously, the more that need them the better the price is that we will get. Once they scan them in and figure out the cost I will let everyone know. In the meantime how many people think they may need a set, no commitment yet...just a chinwag guess.

The original letter sets used to form the MERA letters for the rear deck lid are still available if you want to do some hunting. The cost may be a bit high but you can still acquire/make "original" MERA deck lid letters. If Billet Badges can produce something similar you may have an alternative so that you can evaluate case a versus case b costs.

My rear deck looks nice to me without lettering, so most likely I wouldn't want a set. I do like the 'Mera' script Dan did by his tail lights tho.

I hunted all the GRAND AM SE badges down during that last iteration. At least, the ones that were in the GM system. I bought those listed on ebay and craigslist and through GM clearing houses. These ones should be exact replicas except far more durable than painted plastic.
