I have discovered that my rear wiper was not wiping in the normal range. At the max of the wipe, the left extrema actually went over the left spoiler. I have corrected it today.

I have found out that there is someone who sells a harness for this Turbo Spoiler conversion on eBay

This is the plug that you have to build to interface with the turbo spoiler. I am going to buy some more of the other pins needed and rebuild mine to blend completely into the factory wiring. and I am selling my first improved harness set in 2 weeks, and I will sell one more every other week until I run out of materials. I will list them on eBay, and it will come with all the proper crimping tool, instructions and support for only this mod using PIWIS, but if you prefer you can choose to drive to Atlanta to get it programmed by me for a small fee. Besides Leslie who has already reserved a set, are there anyone else here who are interested?

So if understand this correctly
source a turbo spoiler

then use your harness to wire it up
simple as that ?

How much are you looking to get for the harness?

I would like to say thank you to atwong1 who successfully retrofitted the Turbo Spoiler to my Panamera. Anyone sitting on the fence and not sure whether this was repeatable then I can assure you that this is a 100% authentic and workable solution. Works identical to the factory installation.

I purchased my Turbo Spoiler used from ebay and installed the hardware myself then drove up to Atlanta where atwong1 installed the missing wiring and relays then programmed the car with PIWIS 2, everything went amazingly smooth. The wiring took a few hours to complete, the bonus was the spoiler and wiring worked on the very first try.

A Very happy customer.

Glad to hear that it can be done! Anyone know the part numbers of what is needed to get it done?
This a must for me! If I can find it, I’ll definitely drive to Atlanta.

I have all the part numbers needed. I am extremely busy (Leslie may understand now that he has seen me). It may take me some time to get back to you.
