Can someone please tell me what these are? They've been cut and they look important.
Also, what is this 4-inline connector by the stock battery mount supposed to go to? I don't see a place for it to plug in.
Thanks!

What happened to that car? Your entire trunk is cut out, the rear firewall is cut and it appears some of the crossframe has been removed.

Why does the dogbone look cockeyed in relation to its mount on the engine?

Cut trunk wall = large problems as the wall is structural to "brace" the strut towers and rear frame members.
Driving w/o fixing can "crush" the towers into the gap. Worse if frame has rusted out under the clip where hard to see.
plug to deck lid and was "tied" to inside of hinge frame.
Deck lid has/had 3 or 4 wires. 3 to switch on latch, 1 to Power Lid Solenoid if car have that option.------------------
Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Thanks everybody. And yeah I'm going to weld in some square-stock and sheet metal later to get structure and storage back, but until I get to that point, it makes it slightly easier to work on some things.
I also have to fab up a rear bumper mount because the metal piece it originally bolted to was smashed in, which I believe is why it was a salvage title.

Okay uh I don't think those are the EGR lines because there are already lines running from the EGR to the solenoid and vacuum sensor... These seem to have a lot more length than needed to reach those parts as well.
I mean they might be part of that system but where are they supposed to run into?[This message has been edited by DangerZone (edited 02-28-2021).]

I missed that your trunk wall was missing. Maybe they are the charcoal/cruise control vacuum lines? They would have tun along the wall that's missing. However i swear i see them hooked to the egr solenoid. I have seen another trunk delete before. Make sure you get that reinforced.
Maybe some inspiration http://www.nathanbittinger....ction/turbonorthstar

When they cut out that section of rear firewall, they cut right through those hoses since that's where they route. They mount to the rear firewall and head towards the driver side of the car. They probaby went to the evap canister. Here is a colored diagram of all the lines from BuddyCraig:
On to a more serious question....
Are you sure you want to take on this project? I didn't realize this was the same car as your introdution thread on this forum. It's pretty much destroyed and will cost you so much money to get it safe for the road as well as it appears it needs a complete interior? Are you sure you don't want to part it out and buy a more "complete" Fiero? And I'm not ragging on you, I just hope you understand the time and money it's going to take to get this car safe to drive.[This message has been edited by IMSA GT (edited 02-28-2021).]
