Thanks Tony.

Today I worked on the new LED's for my tail lights. Paying the extra to have Danyel do the board assembly was money well spent in my opinion! Here's a shot of one of the light assemblies disassembled and putting new sealant in:



Installing the LED boards is a piece of cake and literally took about 1/2 hour for both lights. I'd show pictures but they just don't do the finished product justice.

So, I'm thinking that this car is finished... I did get a GM keyless entry module but that may not go in until next winter and I do have some tapers for the rockers which would also be a winter project if I decide to do them. But, overall I'm pretty much finished modding and upgrading my GT. It's more or less what I think it should have been from the factory and I'm very happy with it.

Wow! The interior looks fantastic! Those door panels are the best redesign of the stock panel I've seen yet! Really looking forward to seeing the finished product in person Great job Nolan!

Corvette Show on Saturday June 7 - open to ALL GM cars.

Will you be making your debut there?

Nolan,

What adhesive did you employ for reassembling the tail lights? Will you please report on your experience on how well it adheres down the line a bit? I used butyl rope once for my one tail light and it would not hold. I lost confidence and purchased another tail light that had not been apart. TIA.

Hi Ken:

I purchased the sealant from the Fiero Store:

84-88 TAIL LAMP HOUSING SEALANT TAPE
Make sure no moisture gets in your tail lamps with a new bead of sealant. 1 roll is enough to do both rear tail lamps.

Part # 51558 Price: $24.95

I'm sure I paid a premium but I like to support Fiero vendors. I'll take a picture of the box it came in tonight.

3M has products (in different thicknesses) which you may find locally.

Tony is correct. It's a 3M product similar to the picture he posted:

Well, I've had her out for a few spins now that the interior is done and I can say that the Dynamat has made a big difference in the cabin. The radiated noise from the engine bay has dropped considerably and I'm quite pleased. Well worth the expense.
