drill out the rivets on the stock door. take out the stock plastic catch piece inside. place the eclips plastic piece inside, line it up the best you can. Mark the holes that need to be drilled. Some will be bolted to the car directly, and the others to the plastic. I had one dummy bolt.

Pics in the sig. It's simple, and common sence stuff. You will have to jack up the car to reach in there to gain access to the trap panel. You will need to get up in there to hold the bolt as you screw it in from the front. Good luck.

Finally did the Silver guages (that took me a year to get around too.) I just ordered 19's that will hopefully be here and ready for me to put on the car this weekend. I'm hoping to do the Fuel door, and the aluminum door sills before SLP CAD. Then I'll buy the 35th floor mats there. Other than that, and some engine appearance stuff that's on order, I think I'll be ready, only if time, $$, and girlfriend permits. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> See you there. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I did the eclipse fuel door mod to my trans am. I painted it to look a little different that the eclipses out there.

Its under the album called "Custom Fuel Door Idea" in the bottom link. Let me know what you think:
