50-53 Fleetwood trunk lid same as coupe/convertible?

Does anyone know if the Fleetwood trunk lid is the same as the coupe/convertible for 50-53 Cadillac?
Thanks,

The MPB shows it being the same. You might have to fill/drill some holes.

Just to note that make sure that the Fleetwood trunk lid is from the 60 Special and not the 75 Series Fleetwoods.

Thanks again, I will have to double check.....

Paul, I'm looking at a trunk lid off a 52 Series 75 Fleetwood.  It looks like the long trunk lid that I need for my convertible.  Are you sure that this is in fact different?  Anyone else know for sure?  Thanks again.

BTW, the part number for the trunk I'm looking at is 4197379.

the trunk lid on a 1952 series 75 is the short trunk lid. you need the long trunk lid for a convertible, like the one on a coupe de ville or series 60 special. Dave
