Has anyone done this swap? I was wondering if new holes have to be drilled, and also if the 3rd brake light plugs fit with eachother. Thanks

 

Have you searched? lol yes people have done this but they say it's difficult... it may be easier to trade trunks with someone

now as for the mounting holes being the same... lots say they are different but some say they are the same... im really not sure... might wanna call the dealer and ask

 

I put a 05 OEM spoiler on an 06 coupe about a month ago and the bolt/grommet holes were identical (or at least close enough that I could not tell the difference.) The fitment and alignment was perfect and I am extremely pleased with the results.

That being said, I have no first had experience to prove that an 04 ironing board is identical to an 05, or that the reverse swap (05->06 instead of the other way around) has no added complications. As with any modification, take the comments of others to be "likely" not "fact." Before I did my swap, I read every thread that a search for "spoiler" returned (must have been 200+.) In the end, it still wasn't clear, at the time, if fitment was the same. At some point i guess you just have to take the plunge.

Link to a thread I posted on a couple of days ago about this topic. It might be of use to you.

 

Thanks a ton Boog. One more thing, how was the wiring from 06-05? plug and play? Again, thanks for help.

 

i love my 04 spolier. the 06 is too small. and the g has a fat a$$. either way good info

 

Yep, wiring was identical between the two years, using the same wire plug and rubber sealer grommet. My 06 came with a spoiler, so I don't know anything about the 3rd, window light, as I know many who want to go spoilerless->spoiler are curious.

Sin3, I agree completely. The 06 is nice, but it just doesn't flow with the rest of the car. IMO, overall the 06 = bubble, 05 = wedge. I prefer the general wedge look.

 

i love the older spoiler but if you could get some one to trade trunks that would probably be alot easier
