Bolt-On Application STEP-by-STEP
STEP 1.
After opening and inspecting your rear spoiler you can begin the installation. Notice that the LED
light and the pedestal gaskets come pre-installed from the factory (pre-painted spoilers only),
which will shave some time off the installation.
STEP 2.
Start out by turning over the spoiler and setting it on a soft surface, to prevent any scratches.
Place the plastic locator T-strips into the mounting holes on spoiler and LED brake light hole. TIP:
A small piece of masking tape is helpful in holding the T-strips in position.
STEP 3.
Place spoiler on closed decklid and align to proper position. A measuring tape will ensure a
"perfect" alignment.
STEP 4.
Using masking tape, secure locator T-strips to the decklid of the vehicle. Simply remove the
spoiler by lifting straight up leaving the T-strips secured to the decklid.
STEP 5.
Using a 1/8" drill bit, drill thru the T-strip holes and into the decklid. It is not necessary to drill
through a double panel on this particular application because we can utilize the factory openings
on the underside.
STEP 6.
Remove T-strips and using a 5/16" drill bit, drill thru the 1/8" hole in step 5. If a "double panel"
does exist, use a 3/4" drill bit to drill thru the "inner panel". This allows the ratchet or nutdriver to
secure the screw tightly against the upper panel.
STEP 7.
After deburring all holes, apply small amounts of primer which will help prevent rusting of the
freshly drilled metal.
STEP 8.
Pull back pedestal gaskets exposing mounting tape and place spoiler on decklid and using
supplied screws secure to the vehicle using a ratchet or nutdriver. Be sure to feed the LED light
wire through the pre-determined hole. Apply small amounts of silicone based caulk over mounting
screws as this will help prevent leaking, rusting, or loosening of screws. TIP: Gasket material is
extremely sticky once exposed, so we found that spraying it with water or glass cleaner will allow
you to reposition spoiler as needed.
STEP 9.
When installing a LED brake light it is recommended to splice into the 3rd brake light in the
vehicle and attach spoiler wires using electrical tape. Step on the brake light to ensure proper
wiring, simply switch the two connections if spoiler does not light.
STEP 10.
Finish your install by vacuuming any debris or metal shavings and then reinstall any panels, mats
or other items that may have removed earlier in installation.
