The new SST radio comes with a flush mounting kit. This allows the controller to be mounted “properly” in the dash – rather than using the standard bracket.
In order to mount it in the Fiero, …like everything else in this interior, …fabrication needs to be done.
I used 16 gauge steel to create a mounting plate.

I finished mating the SST harness to the Fiero radio harness.
I bought the Fiero radio harness off eBay for $5. It allows you to adapt any radio harness to the stock harness. It also allows quick disconnect/reconnect for servicing – all without cutting any wires.

I finished the installation of the Fiero sub woofers, and powered up the SST radio for a test run.
I still have a wiring mess to hide, …but it sounded great!

With the mounting plate finished and painted, the stereo system was completely installed.
The system sounds great great (4x50w) and the iPod integration works terrific.
Surprisingly this was an easy installation, and only took 3-4 hours (total time).

With the Ferrari 355 nose, I lost the side marker lights. So in order to comply with Ontario law, I needed to re-install marker “signal” lights on the Fiero.
A few months back I saw a real Ferrari 360 Modena in Toronto, and the Modena had simple round marker lights – they looked good.
So I went with the same style, …simple-yet-functional. I used amber “bright” LED lights – they were purchased from eBay for $30 shipped.

My outer dew wipes were cracking badly. I bought a set of NOS OEM dew wipes from a PFF member.
Looks 100 times better...

I took this back in Feb. 2012 - driving it home from the storage unit (we moved in Feb, so i had to store it in a unit for 10 days)
