Hey guys sorry for being a noob but my spoiler brake light has gone and wanted to take it off, the screws for the brake light are under the spoiler, so i have to take it off.

Here is a pic of what I can see, i guess i just gotta take em out but i don't' wanna break anything so wanted to confirm.

There is a long rubber thing and a small cap thing (if I'm getting too technical just let me know). Do I just yank the long one out and then use a screw driver to pry the other one off?

Thanks guys

Okay i pulled the plugs out, and there were 2 holes each side, one with a bolt which i could unscrew, and the other had nothing under it. I unscrewed the ones I could see but the spoiler was still very much attached to the boot. When I had a look through the whole where the black plastic case that had the clip for the light in it, I could see this, wasn't sure what it was? dosn't seem that it is physically attached to the spoiler, as when i moved the spoiler it didn't move with.

All I can think of is that its some form of a clip thing, although when I pull firmly nothing happens, there are no arms on it to push in or nething.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Dan

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
