New user here, but a friend of mine pointed me this way.
Just the other day a worthless you know what decided to
bust my driver's side window and steal my $30 CD player
sometime in the night, and leave me pretty fuming the
next day when a neighbor came to tell me that my window
was busted. Not only was my window broken, but there's a
big gash on the paneling right next to the door by the
driver's side head rest, my center console has a large
crack in it from probably a crowbar, and my power window
motor looks like it has collapsed. My question is how
would a d.i.y. guy go about finding the easiest/cheapest
solution to replace and fix these parts because, to my
knowledge, Houston is pretty dry when it comes to Fieros.
Here's a link to the carnage in my car showing the
damages: http://imgur.com/a/faWgQ
And here's how the car is normally, all nice and
unvandalized :( http://imgur.com/hTPYsmS

ahh too bad your not local ..i just pulled a door glass from my car ...drivers side too :) ....once you remove the inside door panel you will see the window regulator on the regulator it will have some giant white pins/roller / stupid ass gm design ..these are attached with some big rivets ....depending on the glass you get ....these may allready be on the glass...hopefully they are ...should be as simple as just putting new rivits in ..
having said that its a fiero ..and nothing is ever simple lol
good luck :)

Yeah, I remember looking at the tutorial to change the sail
panels, nope'd on that one after a while. And If I trusted
the postal system I would buy yours off of you if possible
lol, but yeah so far local junkyards are pulling up zilch,
just a bunch of beat up Toyotas.
