If your wiring currently works and you're not swapping motor or gauges there is zero reason to change out the wiring.

Since I'm keeping the Fiero motor would you recommend I do not do the wires why? And was it pretty simple to put in?

When I built my car I ripped out eery single Fiero wire that was in the car. Got a 21 circuit universal GM wiring harness off Ebay and rewired the whole car. But I was doing a motor swap, putting in VDO replica Lambo gauges, my own power window motors,ect so it made more sense to replace everything to me.

I personally have been going back and forth with idea of doing what this guy did, he used a 04 grand prix gtp wiring from a salvaged gtp and the dash supposedly fits like a charm, if you read his build it looks great and it saves you cash, if you swap the gtp 3800sc motor from a 04 in your build useing the wiring from the gtp dash and gauge cluster majes everything plug in play, no splicing into wiring etc, i spoke with him and he claims that it wasn't that hard, check it out.

Rewire my 86 Fiero?? Have a Question or two

I'm thinking about "rewiring" my 86 fiero , to a more modern wiring harness/fuse/ relay system , not really sure where to begin,. My car runs drives /stops as of right now and the wiring is functional . Any insight on a universal wiring package of sorts, hopefully something "painless" or a plug and play if possible. Thanks guys  ::beers
