3 on either side mate and 2 at the top. all you have to do is get the correct drill size and off u go. i would say you need two people cos one of u can hold the spoiler on while you check its in the right place. once happy press down and the stickers with the exact hole size are in place on the boot. just drill the middle bit where the hole is on the sticker. Understand ur concern i was forced to do it cos money was tight but im glad i did now cos it wasnt that hard of a job. | |

Yeah I agree paying for it to be sprayed is worth it, the drilling bit puts me off, how much drilling is needed? cheers whitter. Dan | |

basically the spolier comes in a pack with some glue type stufff to seal the spoiler. You attach some sticky round (polo type shaped) stickers to the holes of the spolier where the bolts will go. these stickers are double sided. you place the spoiler where you want it on the car. press down hard and the stickers transfer to the car boot. This will provide you with the exact places to drill the boot to attach the spoiler. Once drilled apply the glue stuff to the spoiler and place on car and tighten the bolts. If it has a brake light in the spolier which mine has run the wire through the back quarter panel and it will reappear where your back light clusters are. Remove the bulb holder and find the corect path for the brake light and connect the wire to this path. that way the brake light works aswell. Took about 2 hours max. Just take your time! | |

£40 to be sprayed sounds good! how did you go about fitting it yourself? | |

i got quoted £70 just to fit the the spoiler at vauxhall, so i decided to fit it myself. really easy but its best with two people to do it. Oh and it cost me £40 to have it sprayed! | |

My mate claims he can get it reasonably cheap from vauxhall (Red_Sxi) new. Am I better off having it sprayed and fitted at a garage, how much would this be, any ruff ideas? Cheers. Dan. | |

People on ebay sell them for about £100 and some of them offer to spray and bake the paint to your requirements for an extra £40. | |
