I made a slim popup headlight upgrade video. I will be releasing a lot more how-to videos in the future. Retrofit Sealed Beam Replacement - https://amzn.to/3O7mTxA
I find YouTube to be superior in doing how-to's. There really aren't many people out their my age that are into Fiero's. I was into making videos at a young age. These videos hopefully will offer a better solution than some forum posts (with Photobucket being taken away especially) which would have helped me get started modifying my Fiero earlier on, when I was younger and just entering the community. ------------------ Austin 1988 GT 3800SC Series II 3.4" Pulley Fiero How-To Videos at https://www.youtube.com/cha...A?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/FieroAustin/ Build thread - https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum2/HTML/139530.html

Very thorough video. Good job! Keeping making them and keep spreading the good word to the next generation. We need more young blood in here. More bodies is more money for the vendors which keeps the hobby ticking.

I appreciate it! I just released my 3rd how-to fiero video today. Window felt guides and Dew Wipes! I will post more here.
And in case you missed the Vertical Door install.

I've often thought the same thing when it comes to the lack of decent tutorial videos online for our cars... I've also often tried to make a video, but end up forgetting to record things while I working Keep it up, man
Hey you should get to one of the Midwest Fiero shows. The Heartland Iowa club and Northern Illinois Fiero Enthusiasts club have theirs in September. Plenty of others too. Its a good place to get to know more Fiero owners. There are some folks from Indiana that attend. Check out www.midwestfieroclubs.com
Oh, and the biggest Fiero of the last few years+ will be the 35th Fiero Anniversary Show in August of 2018. www.Fiero35th.com

You have put to together some very nice videos! Great job, and I say keep it up! I, as others above have stated, would have loved to do a few videos, but never seem to remember till I am half way through, or done with a project.

Thanks for the encouragement guys. Haven't had a chance for more videos lately, but I think my next one will be an aero bumper upgrade and maybe trunk torsion spring adjustment. The engine block is in the machine shop being measured so I'm out of engine videos for a while.

Right on!... thanks!... one of the next projects for me
but i have to say.. for me; I'd invest in some "plastic" putty style wedges for panel removals.. sorry... but just sayin.. harbor freight cheap
--- question.. is there a way to remove the felt guides by removing the window first, then the guides... no cutting?
Yes. When you take the bolts completely out of the guides with the window out, they will swing down and hang by the small wings on the top. With some tetris work you can get the old ones out and new ones in just fine with no cutting. I recommend a magnet to make your life easier.
I think a video on adjusting your torsion bars would be a good one. It can be short and simple but help people not kill themselves or lose a finger while attempting it.

Yes, some have been able to get those guides out without cutting AND the window still in. Very easy to do with the window out, but you would inevitably break clips doing this. There was absolutely no way my doors would allow it to, but it is indeed possible. I talked to someone who has personally done it. mr_corean is right about the tetris deal. I did not have enough clearance to get mine out for some reason.

Looks great. The chin spoiler adds character to the front-end.
Thanks! I think it's pretty sharp. It compliments my after-market ground effect; I think I'll leave it black even.
Well a bit of an update on the Fiero engine project 2; the second build is coming along SLOWLY. Heads still in the machine shop. I hit a bit of a roadblock after wrecking my truck and fixing the body on that.
My new 3800sc engine's crank bolt is STUCK. I am going to try to torch it, but if that doesn't work, I am not sure how to get it out without cutting off the balancer or hurting the crankshaft...
Finally here, part 2 of my 400whp goal 3800sc build. How-to video of tearing down and re assembling the Camshaft and timing chain. Block is ready for heads!
Today's video on the Fiero Sunbird Tachometer Boost Gauge Install , Rodney Dickman Brighter dashboard instrument panel light kit, and how to remove the instrument panel.
