How do I remove a spoiler?

[freeride_ca]

I'm starting to take my car apart for body and paint. How do I get the stock spoiler off the rear with out screwing it up? It's a 1Ga stock spoiler. I pulled the lower moulding off the bottom of the car. There were 2 big rusted out spots right in front of the back tires. I'm trying to get the car apart so I know what is there underneath.

You will have to pull off your rear wipper blade assembly, im not 100 percent sure but i think you have to take off the plastic trim on the interior on ## hatch, and then there should be screws in there. I will check on my car and get back to you this afternoon.

There is an awesome article in the "tech articles" section under interior/exterior that tells you how to do it. I found it applies to my 1ga as well with little change to the instructions.

Remove Rear wiper 10mm
Remove hatch plastic trim
Unbolt two 10mm bolts holding spoiler to hatch
Slide the spoiler to the rear of the car and pull it off.

For the side pieces, remove the little caps by the doors
Remove the antenna
Unscrew the screw under each cap (1 per side)
Remove the four screws (2 per side) holding the rear portion of the side pieces onto the spoiler body bracket.
Slide the side pieces to the rear and pull off
