I have a 85' GT and was wondering what my options were for changeing my tail light lenses to something else better looking.
Or cleaning then, thanks for any advice.

By The Way, would fit? [url] http://www.fierostore.com/P...px?s=51557&d=275&p=1 [/url]

Your "GT" is a notchback correct? Those tailights will only fit the fastbacks.

There are people who have put GT taillights on a notchie before, but be prepared to break out the fiberglass and sandpaper.

I got mine from Allen Lindsey of Spacecoast Fieros. Very high quality. See the back of the black notchie in my signature

The 85 GT is the same as the 86 and 87 SE. They are notchbacks with the aero body. Ok, well there are a few differences, like trim moulding and stuff like that, but the point is it's still a notchback.

go to space coast fieros. a gent there sells custom taillights for both fastback and notchbacks. also try pisa fiero.com they have some notchback taillights too. oh, the fiero factory has some too. last time i was there Ed Parks had a set that were painted with narrow stripes. or make your own custom set. i have homemade units on my 87 gt. i took stock lights and cut holes for 4 in. round trailer lights. then i used filler and molded them to my likeing. painted them black and they look just like khines.com taillights. good luck with your quest.
