Thanks so much for all the vids pal, just fitted my rear spoilers and I always find it easier watching someone rather than reading instructions 😂👌👌👌👌👌

Awesome step by step guide. Couldn't see a video for Caddy spoiler install but yours gave me a good insight for fitting. Nice job!!

[@tomtdubz]

Thanks for watching, got to be a similar fit?..

[@shug27210]

@@tomtdubz I'm hoping so!!! I'm literally away to try fit it this weekend (tonight and tomorrow once final paint coat is cured))so will let you know. Ill take videos as I do each section incase I get it right haha wish me luck bro haha (also there are no instructions with this one, doing it blind essentially 🤣🤣🙈)

[@tomtdubz]

@@shug27210 lol good luck bro 👊🏻

[@shug27210]

@@tomtdubz okay so that went like a complete shit show haha the template I had didn't line up one bit and ended up drilling the holes twice haha should have listened to the guy above who said don't drill holes hahaha anybody know a welder??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 used Sikaflex (tiger seal type stuff) instead lol

[@tomtdubz]

Noooooo where did the kit come from? I’d be on the phone!

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

[@tomtdubz]

Decent step drills are a must 👌🏻

[@shanepickles2844]

Where did you get the dub edition stickers on the wing .I'm after one for my mk1 golf.transporter looks amazing good job.

[@tommymolloy8214]

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]

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.

[@iainedwardshaw]

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]

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…

[@chatlow]

Any need for the rubber gasket on there? Fitting mine this weekend and as you point out its less flush with the gasket on. Decided to just go with puraflex40 on mine, no drilling

[@tomtdubz]

Don’t think there’s any need, gunna take mine off and re fit matte black soon, got a bit of time on my hands at the mo...

[@chatlow]

@@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

[@ambitionsskyyyy]

Please don’t drill holes in your van, just use adhesive. You will get future leaks.

[@tomtdubz]

Don’t right you won’t 👌🏻👊🏻

[@ambitionsskyyyy]

T Dubz not everyone can do it right, adhesive is much more fool proof

[@tomtdubz]

ambitionsskyyyy this is true, I had one fitted just with adhesive and a nice person decided to remove it... hence screwing this one into place too 👌🏻👊🏻

[@sIikBeav3r]

Where did you buy the spoiler from? Hoping to get one similar with the fittings and not just bonded!

[@tomtdubz]

This is from Travelinlite 👍🏻

[@stuartcross749]

Hi seen this video the spoiler u fitted no only has adhesive can recommend one with the fixing bolts thanks

[@tomtdubz]

Thanks for watching. This spoiler kit comes with the screws I just chose to use an adhesive as I didn’t want to drill through the van…

[@stuartcross749]

Thanks for replying what do u think of the spoiler is it better then the one witch didn't last long ie is it stronger Thanks again

[@tomtdubz]

@@stuartcross749 it’s from Travelinlite.. to be honest they all come from the same factory anyway… good bit of kit 👍🏻

Hi, Great video, who's spoiler is it? I like the idea of having a template.

[@tomtdubz]

Hi David thanks for watching, spoiler was from travelinlite 👍🏻

[@garybowland3009]

Did the drilling template come with the kit

[@tomtdubz]

Yep, came with all the templates, bolts etc 👍🏻

[@tomtdubz]
