OEM Camera Installed Angled Down as it is in the factory spoiler.



Fabricated bracket from aluminum shaped to position the OEM camera angled down as it is on the factory spoiler and to the spoiler surface itself. It is secured with two coarse thread pan head screws.



OEM Camera Installed Angled Down as it is in the factory spoiler, and the air-gap around the camera has been sealed with black silicone.
how do I remove this from factory bracket

I got one of these spoilers for $105 shipped on EBAY and installed it today. My coupe doesn't have a camera so I made a plug out of black UV resistant plastic and attached it with plastic epoxy. As for the heavy duty two-sided tape, I left an 1/8 " gap at the bottom center to let any water escape that manages to get in the spoiler someday. The whole installation took me 2 1/2 hours but I was slow to create a plug for the camera hole. I couldn't be happier with the fit.

Any pictures? I have no back up camera is well and was thinking of just putting a camera in the hole that does not function. One of those cube aftermarket back up cameras.
