Alright, I've got a 10th Annv. so that's the type of spoiler I'm dealing with. What I'm trying to do is fix my power antenna using this write up:

The instructions were simple, 'Wings are usually held by a few screws on the underside' but I'm convinced that you gotta come up with some creative **** to get that wing off, specifically whatever is holding the wing in place at the very ends.

I've searched the forums and google, wasn't able to find anything, but in case I'm a retard and you were able to find something, please post the link.

Otherwise, I'd like to hear from people who were able to get that kind of spoiler off, any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated.

 

IIRC there are plugs at the ends that cover screws from the top. The rest of the fasteners are accessed from underneath/inside.

 

I thought that was what those were, but wasn't sure. Any ideas on how to remove that plug without messing up the paint?

 

Umm, tiny screwdriver and some cooking oil?

 

Sorry, I'm kind of nub at this. I just didn't want to mess anything up without asking first. Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a try.

 

I've removed all but 2... the last two are at the end and rear of the spoiler. There's a notched section behind the wing and since I already broke one side, I know what that section is there for now. Apparently its hooked up with a plastic twist top deal with thin plastic. I broke that piece using a needle nose to compress the plastic barbs on the inside of the car thinking that that was the only way to lift up the spoiler. When I tried lifting after compressing, the thin plastic twist lock broke from the top.

Breaking that plastic made me cringe and its exactly what I wanted to avoid, but oh well.
