GrandPrixGTP95 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Hey guys, I've started to pull the passenger side fender off of my 90 gp to use on my 96 since the 96 is a bit dented. I've got all the main bolts out, but there are apparently some small hidden bolts....can anyone point me to the right place to look? Also...the bolts holding the seat rails in on my 90 are are pretty odd looking. They look like reverse torx bolts where instead of using a torx bit, you have to use the exact opposite thing. Anyone have any idea where I can get that tool at (autoparts stores definately dont carry it, as i've already looked). Thanks in advance 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby1870 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 On the seat bolts you can use a normal socket, I forget what size fits, but a metric size of a normal socket works just fine for those seat bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 IIRC i used a 13mm socket on the seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaloutsider Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Should be 8mm. No where near 13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToroToro Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Did you get the bolts under/around the washer tank? What about the two on the bottom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herb427sc Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 8mm If power seats,leave the battery connected so you can move the seat forward and back to get at the bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patgizz Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 5/16 6 point socket also works on the 8mm seat bolts. the fender has a bracket about halfway up behind the wheel where you need to remove that plastic skirt, then bolt behind the parking light i think, up from the bumper cover into the fender, support from there to the framerail, bottom lip behind the wheel, and of course the 8 or so on top.

Dirty Rockstar Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 I picked up a set of reverse Torx for ~5 bucks from an auto parts store.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patgizz Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 I picked up a set of reverse Torx for ~5 bucks from an auto parts store.. seeing as how the only time i've ever encountered this bolt type was with lumina seats, i've yet to buy those specialty sockets when a normal 6 point fits just fine.

fastbird232 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Wait, are those the ones with the star-shapes that stick OUT instead of sunken in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPrixGTP95 Posted January 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Yeah fastbird, those are the ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Wait, are those the ones with the star-shapes that stick OUT instead of sunken in? yup, but like everyone said, all you need is an 8mm socket to remove them though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
