rear spoiler mounting
When mounting the rear spoiler to the rear deck lid. Does the spoiler sit flat on the deck lid or is there a washer with dumdum between the spoiler and deck lid? I cant remember, the car has been apart for over a year. It doesnt use those spiral nuts like the two side pieces use its a 10mm nut. Just wondering what seals the holes in the decklid.
Re: rear spoiler mounting
The few I've taken apart had no washers nor any sign of a sealant. I could be wrong on the second part. I imagine that is why there are so many rotted hatch decks. I used butyl tape (windshield style) I had laying around on the bolts on mine.
