Spoiler removal - Impreza hatchback

[Jay762]

How to in photo's

 

remove top centre panel of boot trim

 

 

pin locations

 

 

Then remove each side trim and disconnect the rear light cable and rear window spray pipe

 

 

again pin location

 

 

Remove the four 12mm bolts and use a tool to pop the two accessible pins (I used pliers)

 

 

flex the spoiler upwards to free the centre pin there is enough free pipe and cable to do this easily

 

 

pull the rubber grommet free and remove spoiler

 

 

spoiler view with all pins and studs - much easier to access brake light now

 

 

car without spoiler

 

 

to refit line up spoiler and feed cable and pipe through hole and fit grommet then push excess external cable and pipe into spoiler recess

 

 

unit will drop into place retained by the 3 pins, refit nuts and panels side first centre last

Hey Guys, So I lost the nuts from the two sides, they’ve gone in the boot, how would I go about getting them?
