i can't seem to figure this out, i can't get the last 2 outer nuts off, the ones farthest back! if i remove the rubber stopper i can see the nut but its impossible to get to unless you cut the trunk panel itself, i really don't want to do that and probably wont but any help would be great, thanks.

i need to know how to get those last two out, i will take a picture of the ones behind the rubber stoppers... someone must know what i am talking about...

p.s. those youtube videos are sick!! i need to get out and do that, what kind of safety equipment do you need to run on that track?

there should be only 3-4 nuts u have to remove. The is a nut on each end of the spoiler which u get from under the trunk lid. Then there is one more nut that is in the center kinda hidden alittle bit. Once those are removed it will pull right off. U will have to also disconnect the wiring harness for the brake light. I did this about 2-3 weeks ago so i might be wrong on one nut or so but there should only be 3 or 5 if there is two nuts on each end which i dont think their is

thats the thing i got the first row of 3 closer to the front but i have 1 more on each end, you can't see it until you remove the rubber stoppers, then if you look at a angle up about 1/2" you can see them. i have lots of tools and i don't have one thing that can go into that small of a hole and also work on a angle.

i'm going outside right now to try and get a good pic of it with my flashlight... i'll be back in a couple minutes.

ok i'm an idiot, i new i was over thinking this, as i took a better look, it actually looks like a rubber/pressure fit plug. i was in a rush when i tried taking it off, i figured it was only 3 bolts, then when it didn't come off (i'm not in the habbit of ripping things off) i looked really quick at what i thought was another bolt on each side, and just bolted it back on for the time being... so a quick tug and it should come off after the 3 bolts are removed. no harm no foul...

thanks guys, i'm ripping that ugly wing off tomorrow....

The carbon fiber look-alike truck spoiler for a Honda Accord fits perfectly and remains understated.
