I've seen where they are no longer available. Is there a need for them. I could get them made.

I thought someone made a reproduction. Did not show up in any of my searches.

Did a quick check and looks like Oreilly's still carries them in the Murray brand for the 84 at least. Not sure if the style changes for the following years though. Some local stores even stocking them. Murray number is 70-3653.

Did a little more searching. Looks like the 84 also fit a bunch of Chevy and GMC vehicles, particularly the full size vans. The 85 and up seem to be Fiero specific according to the Oreilly compatibility charts.

Edit: By the way, the 85 up Murray part number is 70-3660. No local stores show in stock near me, but it does say "usually available in 24 hours", or "online". We all know that could mean anything.

I just replaced mine within the past couple weeks. They had to order it at advanced auto but didn't seem to have any trouble getting one.

I replaced mine not long ago.
Oreillys had a universal one in stock with the top connector that will swivel depending on where yours is.
But, I ordered the one that`s fixed, One less place it could leak.
They had it that afternoon.

I just ordered a new one from Rock Auto. Seems like 4 seasons is still making them at this point.

I bought mine within the last year. Had to be ordered, but not a problem. Had it in a day or two.

Thanks for the info. I read somewhere that someone said they could not find one anywhere. Seeing that they are available means I will not have some made.
