how to remove the spoiler

Post by harry90 »

i had a go today and i failed... its hard enough undoing the nuts in underneath of the bottlid to get the spoiler loose.... but i stopped after slightly loosening one cos i felt that either the spanner was gonna fall into the "gaps/holes/things" under the bootlid....does anyone know the ight way to go about taking the spoiler off ?

That's the way i'm afraid. Ratchet spanner with a long head is the best - and just be very carefull when you pull it away.

Saying that, I had to take my boot off the other day and give it a damn good shaking to get a nut out!
