Hi all. Need: 1) (GOT ONE - THANKS josef644) Horn button for 3-spoke steering wheel. I think the wheel I have is from an '84; not sure if it matters.

Can trade tan fabric w/Fiero logo or light grey vinyl smooth (see below).

Still has both horn paddles. $50 2) Automatic shift handle ditto above condition/color. $20 3) (SOLD) '88 Dot matrix guage, sterio, aux. guage, & console trim. All like new/excellent cond. except I need to clean the (automatic) console peice up to make sure. $50 all 4 peices. 4) Beechwood dash. Left knee-knocker needs repair or cover (available through The Fiero Store). Right knee-knocker has cracks but not missing peices. Barely visible - could be glued or covered. $50 5) If I find brown/tan smooth door map pockets can sell the lt. grey ones. Excellent condition out of 31k mile '86 GT or SE (not sure which). Make offer. 6) All other lt. grey peices (consoles, guage covers, A & B pillars, floor side trim, carpet, seats, steering wheel w/both horn paddles, dash pocket, sunvisors, etc. etc.) all out of 31k mile car.

ill take the seats if they're good enough condition, pm me pics??
Seats are near perfect. The bottom of the driver's side is the one with a small burn & small tear (seperation of a seam). Someone PMed me with a time stamp 40 minites ahead of your post so I think I should give them first dibs - I'll put you second on the list. Out of film in the polariod so I'll have to buy more or get the digital working/hooked up to another computer. ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
Digital story: I have a Kodak digital but when I loaded the software on my 'puter it made TWO THOUSAND, NINE HUNDRED, EIGHTY-SEVEN changes to my registry, & added 200+ folders!!! It *completely* screwed up my computer, to the point that even text in notepad took several seconds to show up after typing it. I tried to unistall it; not possible. I tried a system restore; the Kodak software came back. Fortunately, a few weeks later the computer froze up one night & when I re-started it the Kodack crap dissapeared! (thank God!) My box still runs a little slow, & I haven't had time to format & re-install all the software. I got another puter just for the camera but haven't had time to hook it up. Moral of the story is: DON'T BUY A *KODAK* DIGITAL!!!

Bwallen: Don't see any way to send pics via PM (using Opera). PM me your email address & I'll send them. Spent all night getting a computer to work with the Kodak digital.
$Rich$: Ditto - PM me your email.
Hi Nelson; looks like Rich has first dibs on the wheel.

Paul, if your digital camera uses any of the standard memory cards (such as SD cards), go to Wal-Mart and get one of those USB universal card readers. Hook it up to your computer, and you can get your camera's pictures without loading any special software at all. Then you can use your favorite picture editing program (even Windows Paint (ugh)) to edit them. ps. I may have to come out to your place again (I'm the one who got the fender liner from you) to see what other goodies I can find.
I now have the camera hooked up to a special purpose computer (just for the camera). I loaded only the software that allowed the USB to transfer the images. Turns out they are simply .,jpg anyway! Why the hell they added all that software that made transfering the images so difficult & screws up folks' computers I have no idea. It still made a lot of changes to the registry just to transfer the files, but it dosen't matter on the dedicated box. Send me an email or call & let me know what else you need. Keep in touch with Charlie too, & maybe you can get together to ride out here (he may be coming out soon). ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
Since I gave up hope I feel much better.

Grey rear console & HIVAC surround are sold, as well as '88 Dot matrix stuff. Still have the other parts for sale. These are very nice '86 grey peices, folks... ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
China scorecard: 1) Bolts not up to grade. The *aircraft* industry had several failures because they were marked a higher grade than they were. They no longer use imported bolts. 2) Poison pet food. 3) Poison pet food - again. 4) Tires that blow out. 5) Poison toothpaste. Contains the same toxic that's found in anti-freeze. 6) More poison toothpaste. Combined with toothbrushes so that it could be imported as "toothbrushes", to get rid of the poison toothpaste! 7) Toys made of lead. Imported by Mattel. 8) Toys with lead paint & small magnets that can kill children if swallowed. Imported by Fisher Price. 9) Poison pet food - the third time. 10) Poison children's paint sets - sold at Toys R Us. 11) Bugs in candy bars. 12) More (nearly a million recalled) Mattel toys with lead paint. 13) Flip-Flops at wallmart that cause a rash. 14) 1 million baby cribs recalled after 3 children die. 15) About 1.5 million Thomas the tank engine toys. 16) "Play Yards" with strings that strangle children. 17) Happy Giddy Garden toys that - you guessed it - contain lead. 18) Purple haloween pails from Dollar Stores that contain lead. 19) Disney Winnie the Pooh dolls that contain lead. 20) Bead kits that contain lead. 21) 500,000 KB toys wooden blocks. 22) Baby Einstien toys. 23) "Discover & Play" blocks. 24) 1.5 MILLION Cub Scouts "Totem" badges that contain lead. **) Hell there's so many on the news every night I can't write them down fast enough! FAR more than I've listed here.
Made in China: NOT gonna' buy ya'.

Aux. guage housing is gone. I haven't heard back from the last guy who said he wanted the seats - I guess he decided shipping was too much (offered to pull the covers & just ship them). Passenger seat is as good as you'll find: near perfect if not perfect. The driver's seat bottom has a burn & small seperation & dirty spot. Still also need the tan door map pockets. The guy that said he had some also has not gotten back to me. I need the little springy thingy for the horn button on the 3-spoke wheel, too. Thanks, ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"

I'm going to have to come and see your collection. Maybe Gary and I can ride down one weekend and bring our bank rolls and clean you out? ha ha ha I'm interested in the seats too.

You really should. I'll get together a list of my needs & email you, & we can do some swapping. ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"

Just do not install the supplied software. All you really need is the USB driver for the photo transfer via a usb to your computer. Don't even need that if you have a memory card reader.
