Anyone else with experience using OEM lenses?

That appears to be a common problem with the Mera tail light housings. I have had a couple of custom fabrications done, cut/glued housings from other Fieros, etc. My current solution to this issue is to replace the incandescent bulbs with LEDs. I have converted three Meras to LEDs now and still have one to go.

BTW, the fitment issue I had with Rob's tail light mounts was not with the bucket that held the lights, but with the external ring where the tail light lens actually mounts. If I can locate it, I would be happy to send you the ring and see if you get any different conclusions about usability.

Just to cover down on a few people questions about MERA letters and nose badges I thought I would take a few and revisit the process I went through. Nelson hooked me up with a way to get the GRAND AM SE letters which were originally used. There were very few available still so I wanted them done perfectly first time. I sent them to Bosco's Modelers for productions. (page 142)
http://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...HTML/077195-142.html
These letters then went to Paul's Chromers for chroming. (page 143)
http://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...HTML/077195-143.html
The nose badge was reproduced in billet by Billet Badges (page 143)
http://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...HTML/077195-143.html
I sent the chromed letters there to be edged in black with the exact same paint. While the letters were there I had them CAD'd so we could get Billet nose emblems and exact letters.
Hope that helps those looking for emblems! I would like to do it with the other tail emblems but don't have any to send Billet Badges.
Here are the links to the businesses:

I can't seem to find Bosco's model maker anymore. I'll keep looking.[This message has been edited by johnyrottin (edited 04-14-2019).]
