So I'm after buying one awhile ago. It has two threaded ends, one on each side. Anybody know how to fit one to an EJ9 boot, with no holes?
 
I take it you're talking about the middle spoiler? You'll have to measure it up and drill the holes. I had one on my old EK3, I took it off when I broke the car but can't remember how it was exactly attached. I'd start by pulling the plastic trim on the inside off and see if there are any marks at all for where the holes would have been drilled by the factory.
 
Ul have to Line it up and drill holes bud. IMO I'd leave it without. I had one on my ek4 and I hated the thing so I took mine of and had to get holes smoothed.

You will prob end up having to do it by eye man. Hold it up and see where looks right then mark it and start drilling. There isn't any marks behind plastic on inside as far as I know anyway.

:/ I don't see this going well, seeing as I'm practically blind.

Anybody have an EK4 I can borrow? Haha.
