Default Spoiler Screws

Hi

I just got done installing my spoiler & because I was attempting to do it by myself I ran into a problem. I'm not going to go through a complete DIY of the install but I thought what I came up with for the screws might be of some use to others. I first taped the spoiler in place to the trunk & began to install the first outside screw. Right away I dropped it into the trunk cavity trying to arrange the spoiler & get the screw started. Took awhile to get that sucker out. So I came up with a plan. I made 4 washers out of clear plastic (the stuff you would find an item displayed in at a store) I then inserted each screw in their hole & applied a washer to each. Now having all four screws in the trunk I then placed the spoiler back on & taped one side of it to the trunk. Now I was able to work on one screw at a time starting on the ends. Much easier & it came out great. Hope this helps.
