I just wish the little red light on the spoiler button actually indicated the spoiler state. If it's up the light should be on. If it's down, the light should be off. How hard would that be? If I'm driving at 75 mph and it auto-deploys, turn the light on for goodness' sake.

I just drive knowing my spoiler is in some Heisenberg state of being both up and down until I actually get out and look at it.

I agree - it would be nice to know status of the spoiler and seems like it would be such an easy fix. While others have said they can see it up from the review mirror, I cannot. Guess I should have gotten a turbo

Half the reason I got a 991 (a mere C2S) was so I could see the spoiler going up in the rear view mirror, and the sunroof so I could see it go higher when the roof was popped! It just does its thing- up around 80, back down at about 50. After the first month or so of showing off, I haven't pressed the spoiler button.

I drive with it up most of the time because I think it looks cool, hehehe! Bad thing is when you forget they are deployed and you scrape the front spoiler on a hard angle, etc!
