none of themwill fit if thats what your asking.
 
dealing with plastics, they are too different to "make" work.
 
if you can pull it off it may be worth the time and effort but i have my doubts.

well, im buying new headlights for the mustang this winter...i wouldnt mind seeing some smoked 01 up lights in a tcoupe headerpanel.
i couldnt put the time into it but...ill sell em cheap!
 
modding the fender probably would be the deal breaker given the way the nose goes together on these cars. i dunno, ive never done a lick of body work.
