  • I was jk about shipping the whole car home. But I might have to slowly find parts and send them to my rents for safe keeping. Just need to learn enough german to find out were the salvage yards are.

    • whoops, sorry Wolf, I hadn't noticed you're at bragg. If you get any orders over that way you'd be able to send stuff home I guess.

        Wolf,if you do get sent overseas,we had a Ford Pickup sent to Italy and with the Military discount it was $700 one way,don't now what the regs would be to send a local car back.
        An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

          • bumperettes

            You have to cut these out of a 92 Protege with a hacksaw. Two cuts (above and below the bumperette) + a small chisel from the side, is the only way to get them out in one piece.



            To install them in the holes of the door frame, you have to first wind the window down and then pull the molding out of the corner. The hole goes right through, so that you can grab the tail of the bumperette.

            I have them installed in both doors now.
            Very rare.

              • maybe

                I have a couple of them. I wish there was a good spot on the Festiva to mount a 10 foot whip antenna. Unfortunately, there isn't and we all have to put up with that little antenna that hides in the A-pillar. I have never bothered to get the tray that takes the place of the radio.

                • floor mats

                  Are these only available in Japan?



                  Has anyone been on ebay.co.jp?

                  How do you spell Festiva in Japanese?

                    • locking glove box

                      I noticed in a Kia Pride NOS lockset, a lock for the glove box. Is a locking glovebox standard on Prides? or rare? All the for sale pictures do not show a lock beside the handle. Anyone know? Is there room in behind to drill a hole to the left of the handle in the front glove box cover?

                        • Kia Pride lockset

                          I received the Pride lockset today.
                          The ignition switch is identical except for a ledge in the casting on the right hand side which I cannot find in the Pride shop manual. I do not know what screws in there or what is supported.


                          The glovebox lock is similar to the Festiva in function, but is slightly wider and does not fit the Festiva shell. Also the mounting holes are mirror images and opposite to the Festiva holes. The lock would have to be mounted to the right of the latch. I will have to buy a Pride glovebox and continue testing. Worst case scenario would require swapping handles between the locks.

                          • The Mazda 323 had a similar lock set with glove box lock, but the door doesn't fit the Festiva.

                              • Wow!

                                I just picked up a set of four studed winter tires with 80% tread (or so), ON ORIGINAL FESTIVA ALIMINUM WHEELS! (came with chains too)

                                Take a look at this link and see what they are charging for these! http://www.wheelcollision.com/fd012.htm

                                Or this one http://www.originalwheels.com/ford-w...va1990rims.php

                                Any guesses as to what I paid?

                                Here are the wheels!
