Rear spoler installation and sealing
« on: March 17, 2008, 11:11:34 PM »
What is the best method to seal the spoiler installtion? Rubber washers under the nuts? Strip caulk?

I used strip caulk and dum dum or electrical sealing putty and have no problems.

I did not used rubber washers, just the factory setup.

I put strip caulk under soft rubber washers on the front studs. Then a good amount of strip caulk on the front nut/washer to plug the hole from underneath. Nothing on the rear acorn nuts. I also used aluminum duct tape to cobver the emblem holes. Seems to be working after my water test.
