I would rip all that poopie out.  That is just me.  :o

You mean this?    :LL:

its almost there.... ::)   :LL:

This car should make it painfully obvious to builders that are using the fiero. Do all the modifications correctly, solder, heat shrink!!!!!  do not  f'ing twist wires together, use f'ing electrical tape, or use the crimp connectors!!

I feel better now after venting, thank you! ::toothy

Oh my.... zzz:)

Ah, the REDO's electrical..... :LL:

I think every wire and connection that the PO modified will eventually have to be checked and fixed.

I'm having an intermittent electrical problem and started with the wiring at the rear of the car. All the poly loom and electrical tape was removed from the rear harness. 

More quality electrical work was uncovered/found with exposed hot wires, twisted connections and crimp connectors.

Also the brake light was run from the cab to the brake light above the rear window, then a wire spliced into that one to the rear tail lights.  I'm not sure why this was done. I will be using the OEM wire from the power distribution block by the engine and removing the green wire

Also some wires that might not be needed?

More soldering and heat shrink to clean this up....  now had it been done right the first time,  by the PO....  :o

The G28 console & lid compared to the Murci-Me Console and lid.

I think the Murci -Me Console and lid are pretty Kick a$$!!! ::thumbup

The G28 center console is pretty chunky,  Thanks to Murci-me I was able to use the mold to make the center console piece.

So it was time to clean up the mess, after the REDO on the wiring under the dash.  While doing this one of the brake switches was loose, and actually not mounted.  The other one had a cracked plug for brake lights.

Wondered what all the connectors were for. ::study

Switch #1
Connector - with yellow & yellow and blk http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum2/HTML/141811.html
Connector - With purple and Pink/blk stripe - TCC

Siwtch #2
Connector - Orange, White and Lt Blue - brake lights
Connector - Blue plug - Cruise

Got the info in the wiring schematic and Pennocks.

knowing what I know, about the REDO, both Switches will be replaced ::toothy
