I want to swap the hatch from a firebird which has the wrap around spoiler on it to my Z28 which has the 3 piece. I know i dont have to mess with the 2 sides on the camaro however will the bolt holes be covered up when i take off the wrap around one and put the z28 back on the firebird hatch?

 

why would you want to but wrap around on a camaro?

 

i think mabey you should re-read the question. Its the other way. I want my z28 spoiler on the firebird hatch that is going on my z28.

 

ok, i assume it wont cover the holes with a 3 peice spoiler...only because the holes for a wrap around are about half-way up the decklid...unless you mean the high rise? in which case the holes still wont match up (different locations)

 

Thats what i needed to know. I dont have the firebird right here to look at and couldnt remember.

Thanks

 

not sure if this helps or if the pic is close enough, but heres my hatch after i took off the wrap around spoiler...

if the pic doesnt work go to my Firebird page, Page 2 at the bottom has the pics

 

Not sure if it will work or not, but if not you could probably find an undrilled decklid from a thirdgen with no spoiler. I have welded the holes shut before to use a different spoiler, but the undrilled ones are pretty easy to find.

 

Thanks all,

In the middle, that the hole that closer to the rear window suposed to be there? Or was is rust all the way through?
Thanks,

 

ah, i thought the holes were farther up the decklid.


the middle holes are for the 3rd brake light, correct?

 

Ok, dont take the wing off the hatch
you are doing what i did puting the wrap around on,just take the hole hatch!
with the wing and hatch it makes less work trying to mount the wing, so take the hole hatch off

 

the middle holes are for the third brake light.

im not sure about that highest hole, BadBlackFormula, but i will find out for ya.

and i only took my wing off to re-paint it but we found it easy to take off and put back on. the clips that it hooks onto, they were rusted out bad, so we just mickey moused it on there. im not too concerned, way i see it is, whatever works, it aint a showcar!

 

the hole that is closer to the rear window is for the 3rd brake light wire. so yep, it is supposed to be there. to put the z28 spoiler on the firebird hatch, you'll prolly have to plug that hole. hope this helps!

 

thanks

 

will a firebird hatch fit a camaro?

 

i always thought the firebirds had a little more junk in the trunk (wider) than the camaros. could be wrong tho!

 

The hatches are the same, so yes they will interchange. The Firebird is slightly wider, but its wider in the quarter panels, not the hatch.
