i believe they are quite straight forward

    clean boot lid down with alcohol wipe,
    place spoiler on boot lid to know position of spoiler,
    remove sticky back cover and position evenly on boot lid (one chance only i believe),
    apply firm pressure
    secure with bolts/clamps on each side
    stand back and think that's lobsided/a job well done (*delete as required)

Almost too easy,best with two people though,one each side to make sure it is level and centred,after cleaning the paintwork with the supplied cleaning wipe,apply the adhesive enhancer and stick it on,There are two small brackets which attatch to both ends secured with two small screws,that's it,10 minute job ,max. Very Happy

Hi! I fitted mine in about 10 minutes but you really do have to be fitted very carefully as the adhesive tape really is a one touch and it's stuck job. My tip would be to get someone to help you centre it first and then prefit the two brackets loosely to ensure that the spoiler is centred laterally and vertically positioned so as not to put strain on the holding fasteners. (The adhesive tape hold the thing on and the brackets are there in case someone needs to pick the car up by the spoiler Laughing )
then mark the edges of the spoiler with a pencilon the inner edges, remove brackets, protective tape off the adhesive and press into place. Replace brackets and the jobs a gud'un. Ralph
