hi, has anyone got fitting instructions for the gs300 boot spoiler. my dealer wants to charge about £120 to fit.

Have a word with jac114, he's just about to do one.

Thanks stej.. lol .. I would love to be able to help but firstly the spoiler i am just about to fix is a WRX spoiler, AND SECONDLY It will be my first time at fitting a spoiler myself. My only word of advise is measure twice drill once.. Good luck let us know how it goes... and as for £120 now you can see why i am doing mine myself. Its bad enough that at some stage i need to get somebody to spray it dark green, but for the moment its going to be fitted in its black colour

cheers

Yeah, sorry jac, forgot yours was a 'none-standard' fit!

Can't see this being a major drama though. Haven't done it on a GS but have dabbled on a few others in the past.
RandyR has done his, and says the wiring is already in place on the loom to accept the rear brakelight (presuming the existing wiring & plug are in tact)

Hardest part is likely to be neatly plumbing your wiring rather than the actual drilling.

Hell all

I will be fitting a standard Mk1 GS300 spoiler Saturday after next to finish the sport upgrade on my Mk1 GS300.

It will be fitted at a car body shop by a friend of a friend as a favour.

I will be assisting and can post details of how it was fitted if it's not too late.

Hi Tempo.
If you are fitting an OEM spoiler, you should find it quite easy to find out where to drill because inside the boot lid has a recess for were the screws fit.

How did you get on fitting the spoiler... Finally got mine back today fuly resprayed.. will fit it at the weekend.. although the guy who sprayed it for me did say he would fit it for £60. Just paid £80 for the respray so think i will still stick to doing it myself...

Is it an import?

Opps mean't to say straight 6... lol Sorry ..glad somebodys awake unlike me when i done it... off to change it now

Hi All

Finally got my sport boot spoiler fitted.

Carefully marked fixing points on boot lid.
Drilled two holes either side using air drill.
Only problem I encountered was the fact that one of the holes came out over part of the boot frame which is double skinned so had to enlarge hole to get bolt to seat correctly.
Looks ok, position may be a touch too far forward on the boot lid but only 2-3mm, not really noticable unless you are really fussy like I am.

has your spoiler got a brake light in it? is so how did you wire it in... i still can not find any lconnection to come off??? somebody mentioned about a connection already being on the loom???

Jac.
The connection for my Brake light was next to the rear centre shelf speaker. It was taped up and had the connection already on it. It was a case of plug and play.

Dont suppose you got a pic of what it looks like have you?

are you talking about next to the big bass speaker?

cheers
