hey you guys....and gals....I just finally got my hands on a set Hammond all aluminum rear window lovers. I've been searching for these for a good 14 years, hoping to one day come across a set. Welp, that day finally arrived. I wish I was able to post a picture on here for you all to see, but like so many others, can't figure out how. ( yes, I've read the posting posts but it still wont work for me) These louvers are literally rarer than moon rocks, and I'm quite sure that's a fact.
The louvers look amazing on my Formula. The yellow car contrasting the black louvers, along with the stock black trim give the car a real sleek look.
I've seen so many beautiful Fieros posted on here, does anybody else have a set?

Well, since I figured it out a long time ago ... send an image or two to the email address in my Profile and I'll post them for you.

OK Patrick, I sent you out an email with a photo of the louvers on my Formula. Thank you for offering to post it for me on here. I'm excited myself to finally see something of mine on PFF to share with others.

I actually have a set of these, picked them up on my adventures, but never used them because they look like they needed some work.

THATS THEM !!!!! Right now their just lying on the rear pillar, not yet mounted. So the fit will be much tighter when done. Man , do I dig these things. And that's my yellow Formula I post questions about.
Thanks for posting the photo Pat.
As far as the drum roll goes, ask Neil Peart. He's Canadian just like you, maybe you'll cross paths with him. I also feell he's the best drummer in the rock business.

Canada's a big place.... But you never know, Neil just might be the next guy in line at Timmy's tomorrow.

They look like they are for the early Fox body Mustang.
Interested to see if they fit better when properly installed.

As a matter of fact, I observed Neil just the other day spending a wad of Canadian Tire dollars.

Congrats I have a set and I looked for 10 years or so. I am also thinking of modifying something else to line up better with my louvred side windows.

I have a set for my 88 GT, absolutely love the way they look. Took me forever to find, and they even came with the original instructions!

I may be biased, but great find.

fierofrenzy, I saw someone trying to sell an ‘85 GT in Port Huron that had a pie of louvres. I asked the guy if he’d separate those, and he said no... but he had an extra set he’d sell. They came with the box, two pairs of instructions, and all the hardware to intsall. I dug up some old pictures of them. They're buried among my Fiero parts right now.

How hard is it to secure to a fastback? Did you have to alter the louvres? I'd be interested to use them on one of my fastbacks since I don't have a notchback.

Mine were made specifically for the fastback, by Hammond. I did not need to modify them at all.
