Two gas stops are installed on the cover. They help open the lid and keep it open. If the trunk lid closes under its own weight, the gas struts must be replaced.
Some cars are equipped with an electric drive for opening the trunk lid lock.
An assistant is needed to do the job.
Removing
1. We prepare the car for repair work.
Warning. When performing the following operations, it is necessary that the assistant supports the spoiler.
2. Using a 10 mm socket wrench, unscrew the four nuts that fasten the spoiler to the trunk lid (two on each side).
3. Carefully, trying not to scratch the color with the spoiler studs, lift the spoiler above the cover. We remove the connector of the additional brake light from the internal cavity of the spoiler and disconnect the connectors.
4. Remove the spoiler.
Installation
We install the spoiler and all previously removed parts on the car in reverse order.
