on a fastback for them to fit properly, is this common? The 88 I picked up, PO sent new sail panels with it, but the drivers side doesn't seem to fit properly, anyone seen this before? someone told me they need to be 'trimmed' ???
I bought a set from the fierostore a few years back that had to be trimmed to fit right. I just took a dremmel to it. It was actually quite easy to do just frustrating having to do it on a new piece. I contacted the fierostore about it and they offered me a discount on my next order. They're usually pretty good about that kind of stuff.
On a side not, when installing the first one on the driver's side I didn't notice the problem until I had ruined a good amount of my 3M tape. Got the "slightly used" tape off just fine but this caused me to be a bit short and instead of going back to the store to get more I put it on without doubling it up as much as I did on the other side. Now sometimes my driver side door window will catch the 1/4 when opening. I believe this is from a combination of me not trimming enough off the back of the 1/4 window and not having enough tape just behind the door window. Mostly my own fault but still annoying.

I used 3m window weld roll, I know everyone says use the 'tape' but I can guarantee they are NOT coming off w/ this stuff... and its a hell of a lot cheaper.
FieroWarehouse had some great ones, but he no longer makes them. I bought a pair from another supplier. At least one of them actually came from The Fiero Store and he just repackaged it. Never installed them due to poor quality. I then ordered a pair from ChrisCookDesigns and they were of good quality and fit. No trimming necessary.
