Carbon Fiber Trunk - INSTALL?

Hey guys, just got my Seibon tunk and was wondering who else has this and how did you install the camera? I have a spoiler on my stock G and im guessing I will need to remove the stock spoiler...which sucks! The wires lead up through the sheet metal and there is no way the camera will com through the tiny sheet metal hole. Any tips on install would be great!

Thanks

Hahaha.

I think very few people have the CF trunk, hence the overwhelming number of replies. Any plans to get the hood as well?

Shouldn't be too hard. Once you get to the trunk liner off you should see two wiring clips. One for the third brake light and one for the camera. Disconnect both and push the grommets and the wires throught the hole as you take the spoiler off.

I hope I understood what you were asking for. If you do get the spoiler off do me a favor and take a bunch of pictures of the underside. I'd like to know how much tape is used and where it's used at for mounting the spoiler to the trunk and what type of tape is used at the factory. I'd also like to see how the third brake light and the camera are mounted in there.
