How to install oem spoiler on base model fit??
Do anyone have proper way or measurement or dimension where i have to drill hole for base model Fit? I resently bought oem spoiler and found out i need to drill four clip holes plus 2 holes for weird looking bolts. My Fit is base model and this is becoming more difficult than i thought it would. Give me anything that would help. Pictures, diagram anything.. please~

I did it on mine. Pretty easy to figure where it goes. Just line it up even, and push it against the tailgate all the way back. Make sure it looks even and punch two holes through the mounting holes in the spoiler onto the hatch. Drill a small pilot hole and keep enlarging it slowly. That way you will not split or dent the metal. Once you have the correct size hole, this is the now the hard part. You need to remove the rubber gromment holding the wires on the left and try and put the nut and bolt together with just a couple fingers. You will repeat on the right side too. You should also put some tub silicon or similiar on the bare metal to seal out the rust on your fresh drill hole. You cant see where you are threading the nut on, its just a bit of luck, and tools wont fit in there either.
Good luck with it. There is a nice write up somewhere in here that I followed. This is just the cliff notes version.
