The 91/92 aero wing is held to the hatch by four bolts and some little clips on the glass trim. I think I first had to remove the black cover to get to the bolts, then remove the bolts, pull the hatch back and it came off.

In 87 ther was 4 bolts under the rear metal panel. You will have to pop off the plastic trim pieces, and there are TWO that hold on the high mount Cyclops light.
The service manual says to push it forward or pull it back I forget...
There are 6 plastic tabs that push up into the spoiler in the spears. Be careful with these, have somene help is my suggestion.
Good luck.
