Other than the dash, are there additional VIN locations on the Fiero?

Just about every major part of the Fiero has a VIN sticker. Check the Fascias, Fenders, Dash, there are stickers in places I didn't expect.

It depends on the year. '84-86 models had the VIN tag in the windshield area, one on the firewall below the driver's side front speaker, the label on the driver's side door, the option build code label in the front compartment on the left wheel housing, a partial VIN stamped on the transmission bellhousing and on the engine block, a sticker on the console support frame, and on a few odds and ends labels throughout the car.

The '87 and '88 years had all that, plus VIN stickers on the major body panels as follows: Front fascia, right where the hood meets it at the top, near the center. Hood, near the latch. Both front fenders on the top bolting flange near the middle. Rear clip on the passenger side, in the lip between the decklid vent and the rear of the car (by the trunk gasket). Rear fascia, behind the license plate.

I don't know if the roof panel has one as I've never removed an '87-88 roof panel. I don't think any of the glass is VIN'd, though possible the T-tops might be.

There are two riveted plaques with the VIN on the frame. The first is the one that is visible through the windshield. The second in mounted just under the first one on the steering column frame. You need to remove the driver side speak to see it.

Then there are VIN stickers on each body panel. The VIN is also stamped on the engine and transmission just above the starter motor on both.

Just a little note and heads-up re: VIN numbers...

It seems there is a rather large scam going on where vin numbers are being taken to dealerships with the person stating they've lost their key and/or locked it in the vehicle. Using the vin, the dealer then makes up a replacement key(s) and viola... the vehicle now is gone!

I've taken to covering up the vin observed thru the windshield with a small black card, or something similiar.

Just a note of caution as we make ready for another New Year!
