Default Interchangeable bootlids

I'd rather ask and sound thick before I spend £££ and look thick


I have a hawkeye with a wrx spoiler but I'm after a sti spoiler, i know there is a lot more holes so thought I'd buy the bootlid aswell save making a mess of drilling but is it possible to get a bootlid from a blob or bug would it fit right or do you need to make adjustments?

Same other than the lock barrel - yours is probably square lock, older cars have round ones, I believe the hole in the bootlid is compatible with both types tho, might be wrong but don't think so.

Early blob and bugs have the same boot lid with round locks.

I'm sure late blobs have the same boot lid but with a square lock.

Hawks have a square lock and iirc an indent for the oval subaru badge!

Bootlids are a straight swap, unsure if the locks are interchangeable!

The round and square locks aren't interchangeable.
I have a square lock boot lid that I won't be using, if you are after one PM me
