    Useful but invest in some cone drill bits for drilling sheet metal and center pop mark the desired hold first.

    Useful video! How easily can you remove the spoiler? I am buying a van this week with a spoiler but want to remove it to fit a bike carrier. AS far as i can tell bike carriers need to fix to the top edge of the barn door which is no longer accessible with a spoiler fitted. would really appreciate your thoughts.

    • @tomtdubz
      @tomtdubz  11 місяців тому

      It’s quite easy to remove.. but of pull/shove.. but could take a while to clean up the glue.. depending on which one was used…

      @@tomtdubz cool, yeah just removed one of the gaskets and the fit was a lot better. Not sure of their purpose unless its to stop water getting to the holes and I'm not drilling so will leave them off. Cheers

    See the glue left over from your old rear spoiler what way did you go about cleaning it up for the new one? Thanks

    • @tomtdubz
      @tomtdubz  Рік тому

      Stanly blade… little bit of thinners, an then panel wipe.. the scotch pad the paint to rough it up slightly if your not using the fixings.
