Great and informative video as always :) Just a fun fact to save yourself the headache of the washer fluid connector, the black retainer doesn't need to be removed all the way. Half way and the connector will come out.

If it has the same rear hatch spoiler as the GTI and R, then it will. I just don’t know if it also has the side spoilers that come down. Aerofabb notes that this will fit the GTI, R, and GTD.

Love all the details you put in to this video on installing the aerofabb spoiler vs the first. Nice tips and tricks you picked up. Do you think one could just use the 3m tape, and do the installation with the spoiler on the car, without the hardware?
@Vaguh
3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! If you decided to install without the bolts you'd probably want to add more 3M for the areas on the outer extents of the extension since they don't sit flush without the bolts. I've heard of some folks going with various other types of rivets or screws so they don't have to remove the spoiler, but you might risk causing damage to the part you're securing to. I highly recommend following the instructions for the best result.

@@Vaguh wouldn’t it make it easier to first pop the 4 clips on the OEM spoiler, before you cut the clue/tape on the sidewings? Instead of first cut then pop the clips and then cut again?

@@pederfree1251 Definitely worth a try, but I think cutting it first gives the spoiler more flexibility for movement to make popping the clips easier. As it is, they can be kind of stubborn. Otherwise, that butyl adhesive is holding it down tight with its Kung Fu grip.

@Vaguh

I don’t think so. I believe the standard Golf has a rear spoiler that is fully integrated into the hatch and the only way to get the GTI spoiler installed is by getting the GTI, R, or E-Golf hatch.

There’s some other makers of spoilers like this out there and use well nuts or screws like you’re describing. When I bought all of them and reviewed I wasn’t as happy with them as Aerofabb’s. A little more work for a much better result.

Crazy story, so on the highway my COMPLETE stock spoiler flew off my car.... I got a replacement spoiler, but the problem is when the spoiler flew off it ripped off the wiring that was connected to the 3rd brake light...my new spoiler has the adaptor connected to it, but I don't have what that connects to. and I can't find what exact part I need to fix this because I don't even know what was is missing.hheeelllppp
@Vaguh
2 жыл бұрын
Well, that's unfortunate and pretty strange. I think your best option would be to see if a local junkyard has any Golfs that you can go cut as much of the 3rd brake light wiring and connector from to splice in to what is left on your hatch. Otherwise, contact VW to see what a rear/hatch wire harness may cost. But that would likely be a very time consuming job to replace the entire harness.
