SETS OF OUTER DEW WIPES IN STOCK ................................ I'm selling sets of hand made inner and outer dew wipes.
OUTER DEW WIPES I installed my trial pair (first set made) on my personal 87GT. They fit great. These are made using the correct rivets so nothing protrudes from either side. I can only make these as I have time so they are first come first serve. All steel parts are laser cut and CNC Bent. They are built as close to factory spec and appearance as possible with materials available at this time. Research never stops on looking for the exact materials needed to make the OEM PRODUCED STYLE MADE 20+ years ago.
Price is $100 per pair. $50 Each
I can offer single sides if needed
INNER DEW WIPES
I also make inner dew wipes as well. These are made by using another GM Part to start with. They hold on a lot tighter to the seam on the door and do not require the hold down bracket for those using different door panels. They look and function GREAT.
Price is $80 a pair. $40 each.
I can also supply you with some pieces of the felt to allow you to recover your original Guides, upon request. Or you can purchase them from The Fiero Store.
Shipping is about $14 now for USA shipments. I have no problems shipping to any other country, but I will have to look up the price to ship.
Most orders are shipped with Insurance. I have seen others take payment up front and have problems during the process and then get bashed for it so I will not do that.
FEEDBACK "Mine just arrived. they came very well packaged in the triangular box and nicely wrapped with bubble plastic. the first thing i noticed was how thick and fluffy the widow guide thing looked in comparison to those that are in my car. It'll be nice to have something soft guiding the window instead of the flattened "window scratcher" thats in there now. overall the workmanship is great. These look like they were made by GM or an Aftermarket company like YearOne. this work is far better than anything i could have ever done, and likely for less money than i would have to invest to be able to do it so well. over all i give them an 11/10. I really have to hand it to you Stu, these are awesome parts. well made, good design, nice and simple. Thanks a lot for the parts, and keep up the good work. "
"Your dew wipes were a hit. You should be getting a few orders from today's show. ....... (PFF User) was very impressed, and said they are better than the Fiero Store dew wipes."
"I think they look factory to me. other than slight color varations never seen once in the car. I'm a 100% happy."
"I just received my set...Thank you they look amazing!!"
"I am very pleased with the dew wipes I got from you. If you choose to continue to make these I would encourage anyone to buy these from you. They really are a nice product."
"Got my 2 sets yesterday!! Beautiful workmanship, and worth every penny!! If every vendor/seller/buyer worked like Stu, there would be no need for a good/bad list. "
"Stu, got 'em last week and installed them yesterday, AWESOME PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"mine showed up....they look great...very well manufactured, high quality...cant wait to install them along with my new windows...thanks again.."
"Stu thanks for a well made product ,install them last week and fit perfect thank you."
"I really appreciate what TFS does for our cars, and the support they go to for our shows... And I know that their wipes are better than cracked dried old ones... But you guys are missing out on fantastic quality with the STU-wipes. the man almost has them down to a work of art."
"I love my DIY-STU wipes as well. They are amazing, and look great!!"

Stu, when I order a set (sometime before Christmas), do you need cores sent back? I know there is no core charge, just wondering if you need the hardware.

Just recieved mine today. Very nice, solid replacements that are as good if not better than the factory ones I picked up off Ebay. Thanks Stu.... Great job!
Hi Stu, you have mentioned that you have a way to install the dews that works the best and without special tools. I am sure that we all would like to have a "How To" of the way that you do it. Would you have the time to make a good "How To" with pics and explanations on how best to do this? Something in .pdf format that we could download?
NO IDEA, I've had a set being stored on our daily driver for nearly a year with no issues, but from the reviews and the materials I use they should last a while. I would keep them indoors though just to save life. With you being in Michigan I wouldn't stow them under your daily driver with all the salt and all.

Just finished installing the outer dew wipes today. There is no comparison between the OEM ones I replaced and the new ones. The quality and construction is far superior. Thanks Stu for a great product and quick shipping.

I have an installation question. I saw somewhere a stubby phillips screwdriver tip mounted to a flat plate to assist the install of these strips, maybe at the Fiero Store, I dunno.
Does this tool help because these due strips are hard to replace correct? TIA sparx22

People kept saying, "Oh you don't need the tool, it isn't as hard as people make it out to be" and when I got to those two last screws, I REALLY wish I had bought the tool, would have saved me almost an hour of cursing, swearing, etc.
It's not that hard!!! just need an extra set of hands. My 3 year old qualifies for that extra set for me. Just need someone to lift the edge after you have the stops out and the window up all the way and slid back all the way. I guess I really need to make a new video to try to get these points demonstrated.
I've been in a slum waiting on some money to come in to get materials. I may be making an offer to paypal buyers within the next couple days. I really need to get this show back on the road. I've been taking care of some other matters over the last few weeks that's taken a lot of my time lately. But SOON I will say SOON.

I have the tool and I think its easier to just drill the window rivits out at the bottom (if the inner door panel is easily removed) and replace them with locktite nuts and bolts, plus this way you can replace the guide brushes also (a real PITA to do with the glass in)
All 5 or more spoken for lil chief you're in even if you're #6 but right now I got to call PAUSE. I'm getting emails and pm's and cannot put PFF names to the emails payments etc. let me sort this out. Never felt the need for 3 monitors before.
1-5 Paid orders made. Calling in the morning to verify orders to get them here by Friday. Leaves me a few days to try to sort out my 2.8 problems. before making dews again like mad.
