Hey guys,

I tried the search function and google with no help. I am trying to install my new clears. I read all you had to do was raise the rear spoiler to get to the bolts holding the rear taillights in. But I have the duck tail. Does anybody know how to access the bolts? I tried youtube as well but came up with nothing.

Thanks.

 

search this site - raise the trunk - there are some plastic flaps that pop off and there 1 screw

 

I raised my spoiler, then underneath popped off a plastic cover on each side with two bolts (right above the taillight) which came out easily enough once the cover was popped off.

No idea with Ducktail - good question Congrats on getting your set though

 

Thanks Cpa4S,

I assume raise the rear spoiler? And I can't. Tried to see if it pops off but it won't. I apologize if I am misreading your suggestion. I did try to do a search. I guess I am using the wrong key words. Tried ducktail, removal of taillights, etc...The removal of taillights showed me what I already knew about raising the stock spoiler with the button and then accessing the screws. The ducktail is locked down.

Thanks.

 

I believe you are the very first Ducktail clear light install, sir.

 

Thanks nicoli. Your the inspiration with the clears. Love it on our color combo. Well actually I like the look in general on all colors. Hopefully I can figure it out. Maybe I just have to pay the dealer to do it for me.

 

nicoli is the person - he was the virgin clear light person & has a great pic on it!

 

you raised the rear trunk not the spoiler for that?

 

Spoiler for me, but I'm a silly Cabrio

 

Nicoli is right. Should be spoiler. Popping the engine cover does nothing. The duck tail is a fixed wing. Couldn't figure how to pop it up.

 

Disclaimer- I just had both tail lights replaced by the dealer for moisture/condensation. I asked the tech how he did it- this was his explanation:

Pop the rear engine cover...There are two exposed torx bolts that need to come out...these hold the spoiler. Bolts out & the spoiler slides forward and then you'll see the top of the light.

I think there is only one bolt that hold the light in place. Should pop out.

Dealer said it took ten minutes.

I wish I would have watched. Hope this helps you.

This is the driver side.

 

Honda you are the man!!
I will look into this tomorrow. I appreciate it.

 

Hey guys, thanks for all the help. It worked just like HotHonda said it would. Easy. Maybe 10 mins and that includes taking my time to not scratch my paint. I will post up pics when I get a chance. Snowing like crazy here in CO.
