Rear spoiler mount.
« on: January 26, 2012 - 11:45:18 PM »
I have a trunk without the holes for the rear spoiler.
What would the measurements be from the rear of the trunk deck for the holes to mount the spoiler.
I will get center and then space accordingly, but how far forward do I drill the holes.

Any help is appreciated.

Not sure for a Cuda but I think someone had Year One installation instructions posted a while back, not sure if the picture is still on the site.

To get a general idea (but don't start drilling without measurements) on the underside f the trunklid there may be holes on the underside sheet metal supports.  I know on my Challenger there is.

You ccan check out this guy's install but I think he had issues with the install because he didn't get the complete kit which included all the brackets so he had issues with his install.  I didn't read the whole thing but this might be a good read for you just to see the ins and outs of the install.

What company is the wing?  You might be able to go to that company or the Year One site to get install instructions.

Duh, thanks for watching my back!  That was the link I was supposed to include in my post!  :faint:  That guy had issues since he didn't buy the complete kit so there were installation issues.
