There are OEM instructions and I'm not sure anyone wants to drill holes in their trunk lid. I think most of us let the dealer do it. I've done a lot of installs of stuff and this is still one I wouldn't do. Besides, you also have to replace the tortion springs, PITA.

If I could drill holes in my Corvette to mount a spoiler, you can drill holes in a TSX.

Is drilling a hole easy... sure. I installed my hood shocks (as I think you did as well). However, until you've had to play with the trunk tortion springs... I'll call your Corvette a bit easier.


Better yet evil_acrua, if you have a CGP, I'll trade you trunk lids. I even still have my tortion springs that comes with it since I removed mine and installed trunk shocks.

Moving this to main discussion since it really isn't about performance parts (spoiler doesn't count, no.)
