how to remove retractable spoiler?

I've been searching 3 forums that I'm a member of. Googling as well. Can't find any instructions on how to remove the rear retractable spoiler. Would any of you guys have any links or instructions that can be posted or forwarded to me? Thanks!

Thanks gu9cci. My indy was able to get a copy of the factory technical service bulletin on how to remove the retractable spoiler. Problem solved. Installation of the aero wing is in progress and will post pics soon.

one question. When you remove the engine lid and install a fixed wing. You remove the air inlet slots which the fan uses to draw cool air into the engine bay. How do you overcome the lack of cooling air to the engine bay?

The OEM fixed wing has appropriate air inlet slots...
