Hi all

I've just got a MY 99/00 spoiler to put on my 95 car.
I was just wondering if fitting it will involve drilling any holes in the boot lid.
There are 4 bolts + 2 locating pins towards the front and the wire for the brake light.
Oh and also is there a plug for the brake light to connect to or will it be a case of getting some scotch blocks to wire it up.

I know I could take the old one off and look ,but I can't be bothered until the new one is sprayed and ready.

Thanks

Chris

It'll fit directly on mate, no need to drill anything. There is a connector...but if it doesn't fit, solder the wires (please don't use scotchlocks), get someone to brake for U, and check which way they should be connected, the diodes will only be lit in one way.

It'll be awfully dirty where the old one's been sitting, get it cleaned, at worst you'll need to use some polishing/rubbing paste to get it all shiny and lovely.

Thumbs up

You got one then

When i removed my low level spoiler there was a lot of cr@p underneath.

I think there are just 4 bolts ( 2 you can see and 2 underneath the rubber stopper things )

Roll on NM5!!!!

Phil.
