Default WRX Spoiler foam adhesive pads

Hi all,

2007 STi Spec D, so has the WRX spoiler.
I'm after the foam pads that seal the spoiler to the boot. The ones I have are going green / nasty etc,

The bolts look easy enough and I have a deep enough socket which is unusual lol
I guess when putting the spoiler back, I would stick the pads to the boot, then the spoiler to the pads, or maybe the other way round?? The 4 bolts just a good nip?
If the pads are only sticky one side, I'll stick them to the spoiler then bolt down.

I'm not sure what these pads are even called, I want shaped OEM rather than 3M cut my own or Upol Tigerseal etc...

Anybody point me in the right direction?

Ah wicked thanks Don
All the nuts and bolts seem ok, so I just need 1 x 96074FE010 to do just the foams both ends?

I can only find them in the US, nothing on Ebay or ICP....

To do both ends you would need 2 as per qty column and probably the packing seals for the studs/nuts (4 off) as the foam is a protector not a seal - notice gap at rear corner in diagram



Probably easier to get 6mm (or so) wide adhesive foam weatherstrip..................... and cheaper.

Ah got ya, so the seal in effect is in the nut "packing"?

Look like foam or rubber washers, wonder if I could make these myself....

.... and don't forget the seal on the RH side which is a blanking grommet or a grommet for the high level brakelight wiringthrough the boot lid.
