Before you put a CD player in. get rid of that metal piece at the back & riveted to the plastic on the bottom. In my car, it is pushing the back of the cd player. Because it was mounted as far forward as possible at Best buy, it also means a CD will hit my shifter in park! I would have broken it off but, the plastic was too flexible.

Never thought of that, i'll have to do that. Thanks! Still havn't had much time to get any work done on it because another project I started with the car Heres a hint:
hmmm:
You probley know where this is goin:
muh haha ahhahahaah:
AIR RIDE!!! Planning on having most of the front suspenion sandblasted and powerd coated. I'm going to try and weld S10 cups to it so i'll get a lot more lift, still worried about the bags rubbing so I have to work on notching out the cross member and reinforceing it. I'm only doing the front, for now. The back is going to cost to much to do right now. Not sure yet, but planning on mounting the tank and the compressor in the hood. I'll be posting updates soon!

Had to work on my 85SE 5 speed today (put a fastback on it a month ago) Throw-out bearing fell off on me. It was a nice day so I was planning on dropping the engine, fixing the throw out bearing, and put the engine back in all in one day. Replaced the clutch in it awhile back in one day, so I thought no problem...well, it didn't go down like that. I was working on outside, it was nice and hot out. Then all of a suddend it started pouring down rain with out a cloud in the sky. Engine was about ready to drop, so I had to run and put a tarp over it and run up all my windows
O'well, rain is stopping now so i'm going to go on out and finish it up.

Cool, if you get it in and functional, I think you'll be first and only one one the forum to have a working air bag suspension on a drivable Fiero.

Before you destroy the metal peice at the back of the radio on the console trade it to me if you need to provided the rest of it is fine. I have several already broken off. If you use a factory GM CD player you wont have that problem...I've got a Monsoon in my DOHC.
