this was done on a base without wiper



the hatch cover hanger needs to be twisted to 90 degress for it to release..

youll need to remove the hatch panels... just pull

unclip the rear hatch light..

here are some reference pics..

make sure you have the gasket between the hatch and spoiler...

i used clear silicone as extra precaution for sealing..

note.. there are 2 notches on the wing i didnt secure...

malloy had no fasteners listed as part of the spoiler so i just sealed it..

Hey thats cool, your putting a wing on. As of late it seems as though it's all about taking them off.
