Thanks DotTC! It's been a long journey but it's been fun

Not really a Fiero update, but I've been working hard on other projects:





The Fiero is more or less in storage for the winter months now. I think I'm going to try to get around to replacing the side window glass over the winter.

Thanks guys! I have another non Fiero project in the works that I can't wait to share if you like cool and innovative! Hopefully soon!

In the meantime... you can add bluetooth to your Fiero if you have an aux port somewhere:

A few other non-fiero but automotive related projects I've been up to over the winter...







The Fiero will get some TLC in the spring when it warms up!

do you know what offset your rims are and if they would fit on an 1986 fiero without the use of coil overs or spacers I want to get a set of 16x7s with 40mm offset but I didn't know if they fit and you said that you had originally had a set of 16 inch rims and I was wondering what the specs on those where if you remembered.

Been a while since I provided a Fiero update. The car has mostly been sitting as I've been so busy with other things in life. Moved again and got myself a garage with a much higher ceiling... and then inherited a four post lift

I've owned the car for roughly 13 years now and I've been wanting to replace the scratched side windows this entire time. Finally got around to it this past week, along with the dew wipes and reupholstered door panels. All parts that I've been hoarding for years:

Went with the smoked grey glass...







And there you have it... no more scratches and cheesy 80s blue window tint and no more grey carpet doors

Just installed the extension and it works like a charm!

Hopefully others will do the same... at least I can see my own thread again

I've had these up for a while now, but forgot to post them here...





In the spring I'm going to revisit my rear diffuser and put some cats on the exhaust.

Do you have any better pics of that door glass before and after? I have been wondering if I should do mine since my doors are all apart atm and that guy was still selling those replacement ones on here, I assume thats where you got it? Do you think the smoked grey is equivalent to any actual light window tint, I might get it just to avoid having to to do that later.

Wow I can't believe the last time I posted was that long ago...

EDIT.... never did add this video to the build thread here either... some rear diffuser panels I whipped up at some point after doing my side exit exhaust:



Well.. here is an update... a lot of you guys know about these headlights. I recently invested some time, effort, and money into improving the kit A LOT. Check out the video...



https://via-autoworks.my-on...002281_20063234.aspx

This latest version features:

â–º True poly-carbonate lenses
â–º Improved sealing from weather and elements
â–º ABS formed housing
â–º Anodized aluminum brackets
â–º Improved fit and finish all round
â–º Easier to aim headlight mechanism
â–ºLighter weight than previous versions

If anyone comes across this and wants a set... best bet is to email me through my website... I don't check my PMs here frequently enough.
