Repairing the stock stereo wiring harness
The original harness was cut for a custom stereo installation. I used a stock harness I pulled from a local yard to repair it back to OEM.
Fiero interior has been dismantled
I dismantled the custom interior pieces from the chassis. It involved almost 2 months of custom fabrication to install the new interior, and it took a mere 20 minutes to uninstall everything. A few more pieces need to be installed on the dash, …but the…
Fiberglass gap fix for the Fiero PISA dash
After the fiberglass cured, I pulled off the duct-tape and trimmed the edges. It will require a little more sanding and body-filler to finish, …but I’m quite pleased with how it turned out.
Dash gap fix
I decided to fix the dash gap with fiberglass, rather than rely on upholstery to cover up the misalignment. Duct-tape was used to form the shape, and act as a removable barrier. It turned out quite well.
Fiero custom door panels are complete
The fabrication stage of the door panels is complete. All that is required now is upholstery and sound padding.
Custom Fiero door panels
Today I installed the driver’s side PISA door panel. It took about 2 hours and was quite easy. The only problem is that the interior armrest covers the HVAC vent on the dash. I will need to make a custom cut to the armrest –…
Fiberglass headliner
This was one of the easier installs I have done over the past year – no fabrication was required. This is the Fiero Store fiberglass headliner. I acquired this almost 4 years ago and it’s been sitting in my basement waiting to be installed. All…
Fiero dash – added lower steering column cover
Adding the steering column cover was pretty straight forward. I needed to trim the edges off, and drill two holes at the top to hold it in place. Other than that, the stock mounting locations were used.
Fiero dash mounting brackets are done
Today I finished mounting the dash to the chassis – driver and passenger sides. With the driver’s side, I re-used the old Fiero dash bracket to mount the hood release. On the passenger side I also re-used the old Fiero bracket – I created rubber…
Fiero PISA dash – installation of the instrument cluster
In order to successfully mount the main Fiero instrument cluster, I needed to drop the steering column. Once it was disconnected, I could properly mount the gauges. Note that the original location for the “hidden” cluster mount actually maintains alignment – but it’s “underneath” the…
Fiero dash is partially installed
The PISA dash is partially installed. I have drilled and mounted the upper points – near the speakers. The HVAC ducting is not in place yet. Once I get the dash roughed in, I will pull it out and install the ducts. Sorry for the…
Fiero dash speakers and HVAC vents
I had some time today to cut out the holes for the dash speakers and the HVAC vents. I used a cardboard template to help transfer the hole locations.
A little progress on the Fiero dash
I had some spare time today to cut out the radio console.
Fiero dash continues
I made a few more cuts, and now it can fit inside the Fiero. I’ll need to do some trimming but the overall fitment isn’t too bad.
More progress
A few goodies arrived for the Fiero: – A set of 16″ Z24 Cavalier rims with 90% tread left – picked these up for $100!; – Amber LED marker lights that are flush mounted; and – LED switches with chrome aircraft guards. I also made…
Ferrari 355 tail lights for the Fiero
Since I finished the rear bumper installation, it was time to install these. They are AWESOME. The LEDs are super bright. Installation was straight forward – I just spliced into the existing tail light wires.
