Default spoiler relocation how too

Scroll down to my last post and use the attachment to see the measurements sorry for all the messed up pics this is how to relocate the spoiler to were it should have been hope you all find this to be helpfull

1. get your tools socket set with 10mm socket 5 in extension and wratchet, and a 10mm wrench.

2. remove trunk lid liner (unsnap the clips)

3. with socket set remove the four nuts( making sure to not drop the spoiler on your rear window hold it on the last two nuts)

4. measure your new holes using the picture down below for measurements (mark with sharpee you will not see any marks your spoiler will cover it)(measurements same for both sides of car)

5. drill started holes

6. drill biger holes for the studs useing 1/4 in bit( for the holes at the back of the trunk drill them at a slight angle toward the quater panel so the stud does not hit the trunk lifter.

7. drill the hole for the tab"allignment notch" on the drivers side with a 1/2 in bit.

8 for the tab on the passanger side you will need to drill 3 holes going back from your mark (1 on the mark and 2 going toward the back).

9. place spoiler in holes

10. put the nuts back on ( do not tighten to much or you will crack the fiberglass)

11. reinstall your trunk liner

12. smile

ld you take a picture from after the install, I'm curious to see if the original holes are noticeable moving the spoiler back that far.
