Ok, spent the last 2 nights of free moments making a switch for the performance transmission function. I found a switch in a late 90's saturn sc2 and modified it to fit within the Fiero blank spot where the rear defrost was located. So here is how I made it. I will install it this weekend as I have to run a hot wire for the little light and another wire to ground it out as that is how it works.



At this point in the pics the switch housing was taken from the saturn and ground down to fit within the back of the fiero plate. I then transferred the hole by drilling and carefully grinding it to shape

t this point the switch itself retained the original wire clip but being it goes out the side I had to modify it as there is not enough room in the gauge pod side for it.


Then I covered the bare wires with potting resin to lock the wires on since the plug had to be removed. I then extended it a bit with some hot glue to make sure it was all sealed.

Then bonded the frame to hole the switch , also makes changing it a breeze as it retains the clip in function



Done and looks good to go!

SO I could not find seat belts that look good so I decided if in a crash lets just take the driver out of the crash.



John is a Pilot after all!!

Um, ejecting into air with a parachute is OK, but ejecting on the ground without protection is bad.

I don't see how ejecting onto the ground with condoms is going to save me...

I think I have a set of seatbelts at the house...grey ones.

Protection--not latex. Helmet, goggles, knee & elbow pads...maybe a protective vest. Most importantly, no other traffic or a wall in the vicinity, though.

Cool John I have some here from the car we parted out but they are very soiled and doubt they will come clean. I will put them in for now so it has some and you can swap them out with the ones you have once it makes its way back home.
