i would love to mod my 89 led spoiler, but i still what the led brake light to work, how do i go about rewiring the spoiler so that the brake light will still work? do i have to cut open the spoiler to re-route the wiring?
When you remove the center stanchion, you'll have to extend the wiring. After the ends are cut, you can push the wiring down through the ends to the passenger side. Finally, when you move the spoiler back, you're going to have an unused hole under the spoiler. Measure and drill a hole in the base of the spoiler to route your wire down and into the trunk. Use a rubber grommet to keep the wire from vibrating and rubbing the insulation off. Now drill a small hole in the raised cross bracing in the trunk lid and you should be able to push it outfrom under the cross bracing and making your connection that way.
And yeah...after I did my first spoiler, I did another '89 spoiler and sold it on eBay for $300. Then I did another for EHolmes.
It's not bad if the spoilers are sourced locally but it takes a while to do and you'll not make much money doing them for other people...especially if they're mailing you their spoiler and have to pay shipping both ways.
Packing a spoiler properly is a pain, too. Follow Bill Strong's link and DIY. If you have NO skill, whatsoever, take the printout from Bill's link and ask any body shop what it'll run you.
