Its a quick throw together. When i put the seats in ill actually see how to fit it natural. Most seats ive noticed from vatious install threads can go outnoard a whole inch towards doors and that should help the tightness. Its not oerfect but i have my armrest 1.5 cupholders and a sorta hidden headunit option. Its not worse than stock still unclear on how much better. Time will tell

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

Amazing goes in there really super deep I had to notch it and remove top plastic,also rip out all the factory festiva black metal ti make it clear the blower box. In the picture of the Depth isn't that great but you won't even be able to see the radio unless you're behind it I think that's really good anti theft in my opinionJack Byrd,

There are a few cars with narrower center armrests that may also fit.
There are lots of manual belts around for sale. Just make sure you determine the proper mounting tang length. There are both long ones and short ones.1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)

Yesterday, I redid the whole rear brakes. Bled the system and it didn't give me brakes.
Today, I am fixing the emergency brake adjuster levers on the rear brakes, putting new shoes on the back, replacing the right rear spindle, purchased a replacement left front turn signal lamp as well..
I think that is enough for today!

'90:
New driver's tie rod (in/out), redneck alignment, finally put on the Aspire manifold+downpipe I bought (old downpipe was.. dead), but couldn't get o2 sensor off old manifold.. tomorrow's agenda.
Hope to have it on the road sometime tomorrow. I've missed driving it.
