Removal and Installation

3. Remove the spoiler-to-luggage compartment lid nuts.
- To install, tighten to 6 Nm (53 lb-in).

4. NOTE: The spoiler is attached to the luggage compartment lid with double-sided tape. New tape must be installed during installation.

Position a piano wire, or equivalent tool, between the spoiler and the luggage compartment lid.

5. Cut the double-sided tape.

NOTE: There are 2 pin-type retainers on the bottom of the spoiler. If the pin-type retainers break during removal, a new spoiler must be installed.

6. Slide a suitable tool between the luggage compartment lid and the spoiler at each end until contact is made with the pin-type retainers. Push in the pin-type retainer and pull up on the spoiler to release the spoiler from the luggage compartment lid.





7. Remove the spoiler.

8. NOTE: Clean the mounting surfaces of the luggage compartment lid and the spoiler prior to installing. Press along the front edge of the spoiler after securing the fasteners to make sure of correct tape adhesion.

To install, reverse the removal procedure.
