Default How to remove spoiler ???????

How to remove rear spoiler? I had a carbon fiber ZO6 spoiler installed on my C6 coupe and i am going to be selling it and getting a Zo6 so i would like to put the CF spoiler on the zo6. So if anyone has an easy way to remove it and put back the stock one please let me know.
Thanks
ADAM

Yes, but you also need to disconnect the wire connector before you can remove the spoiler...

Also hang some rags down between the lights and paint to keep from scratching.

BTW, the nuts are 10mm - if you have to swap out the CMTL, which is held in place by the inner two studs, you will need a torx socket (not sure of the size). this is one set of tools (torx sockets) that i don't have in my garage. as a work around, i just used two 10mm nuts jammed together and backed the studs out to remove the lamp assembly. hope this helps...

And you need a Torx screwdriver to unscrew the lamps.
