So I'm doing a little project & need to take the spoiler off....open the trunk & see 3 nuts only need to come off no big deal...so I unscrew the bolts & the spoiler still wouldnt move....as I pull up on it I notice that its glued down? Is anybody elses spoiler glued down on the trunk? Is there more bolts then 3?(was yours Emax when you took it off to put on the apc spoiler?) I can take this spoiler off & its pi$$ing me off....Can anybody answer these question or give me suggestions.....

 

Un-plug the LED wire and remove the 3 nuts. Then you have to heat the double sided 3M tape up(you called it glue). Over all it takes a lot of force to remove the thing, you NEED to heat the tape up good to get it to budge at all. Have fun.

 

thanks...looked like goop or silcone to me

p.s. -- my project involves putting a clear brake light bar (that will light up red still)...will keep all ya posted

 

You know I just rememebered that the stuff is glue.. Sorry, what I said still holds true though. BTW I am pretty sure you can remove the LED light without removing the whole spoiler. You just need an "L" shaped screw driver.

 

cool...yeah i did get the stock LED light out w/o removing the spoiler but the clear LED bar i bought the holes dont align...so I have to drill new holes & that involves removing the spolier...thanks for the info

 

Pics pics pics when done!!!

 

with the clear, is it just a clear plastic cover or does it replace the red led's with white/clear led's?

 

I will...I'll see if I can borrow my cousin's digi cam to do a how-to b/c the last digi cam I bought broke

for those interested I bought my clear LED bar @ http://www.electrodyne.cc ... LINK
you have to shave the middle 2 tabs w/ a dremel which is easy to do if you have a dremel (i use a rotozip)

 

Weird ... I have five bolts that hold the spoiler on.

 

dayam... your car is really coming along.

 

5 I have an '01 & it only has 3 holding it down


fo' sho.....so when u coming up to a midwest meet? we got one next sat. u should try to make it if you can.

 

holy $hit 35 led's in the piece, that is going to be really bright, and thats going to look really nice on a white car too
