240 - 740 Tail Light Interchangeability? not quite 200 1986

I've seen pictures online of at least heavily-modded custom 240 that had 740 taillights. It took a lot of work, and I think even some cutting of the sheetmetal was necessary to get them to fit (I believe they were the "bar" 740 sedan tailights--second iteration?).

But stock compatibility? No, not even the ones that look alike, it seems. Just from a cursory visual inspection (while I was checking for 740 accessory panel compatibility) the 740 lights appear to be too deep and angled.
