As the title states.
Just about to buy the rear spoiler, Mitsubishi always quote way too much for installation.

I haven't installed one, but I did have to putter around with mine to fix a nagging rattle. There are essentially two bolts under the small black plastic cover in the middle of the rear hatch on the inside. There are two more bolts near the outside edges of the hatch, also on the inside. These are not covered. I believe that trim tape is also used for sealing purposes.
Not sure if holes will need to be drilled, but it is likely.
Spoilers are standard here in the States (and in Canada I believe), so most folks here haven't had much reason to mess with one.
I'd still let them install it Jackson, then its covered under warranty... I feel the same way about the side skirts and side moulding protection which I'm having installed on its first service.... I can do it myself no dramas, but I still feel better letting them handle it... And yes the added labour costs suck....

Ugh, these weren't the responses I was hoping for lol.
Put it this way, they quoted me 2 hours work to install my rear extensions which took me 20 mins...
They quoted me an hour and a half work for the spoiler, which is about $200AUD, fairly steep if you ask me.

What did you end up doing with this Jackson? DIY? Can we get a write up?

I just took my OEM spoiler off. I live on a gravel road and it makes it impossible to clean the top few inches of the rear glass. I got this car to be practical, styling that makes things more difficult has to go.
Looks like you'll have to drill 6 holes to mount it, two for the bolts on the ends and four across the middle for the pop clips that hold it on.
Anyone have a source for a non-spoiler third brake light?
