According to this yes

I was under the impression that the cars were basically the same shell so the spoilers should be the same too shouldn't they?

Perhaps the blobeye wasnt launched in the states until 2004? but there the same boot/ spoiler as far as i know.

CHOLTON

Yeah you should have no problems !

They'll fit fine. As John says above the Blob wasn't released in the States till 2004 hence why they say 2004 onwards

Thanks for the info people,tried to fit them today but need a socket set which i havent got so ill have to buy one tomorrow cant get to the nuts inside the strips in the bootlid.

Be carefull taking the nuts off as it's VERY easy to drop one once they are loose and loose it inside the spoiler!!
I speak from experience lol. Took ages to get it out again lol

Good point mate.

i fitted 3 to mine.

i recommend you use some decent double sided tablesticky tap, and use say 2 strip's each side, and just force them in place as you lock the spoiler down. the screws dont do much, and make life hard to line up.

Or Tigerseal. I know people who have used that and not even bothered with the screws. Just gonna be a right pain in the **** if u ever wanted to remove them!

Whats wrong with the tape provided?not strong enough?

CHOLTON

It seems pretty damn strong to me !

warren m

When people have fitted there wing stiffs.. can you see some of the tape when up close to them?wouldnt mind of seeing some pictures close up of other peoples.thanks

yes its strong, but i found it wasnt thick enough, i just doubled up, and lined them up, and screwed the spoiler down, but that was because i was fitting 3, and needed a tight fit, which i knew was going to be hard.

i have a few pics of mine, but no close ups, but you cant notice the tape at all.

when you fit them do you just re use the screws under the spoiler or do you need to get longer ones

iTrader: (5)

There should be a pack of new longer ones supplied with them!

ozzreid1964

iTrader: (32)

they are second hand ones .don't suppose you know the type of screws they are please

g7prs

iTrader: (5)

The ones that came with mine were an allen key head, they were about an inch to inch and a half long ( might have been slightly longer ) You would need to get the width / thread type from the original screws.

I used some good quality double sided tape, yet 12 months down the line the bottom section has come away.
I've purchsed some Sikaflex 221, to re-fix.
When I take them off, i'll measure the bolts if you like. But it won't be for a week or so!

having them fitted today thanks for the offer though got some screws from local factors to fit

lloyd6240

Where can I get some from and how easy are they to fit? Don't sound to bad?

lloyd6240

Found some. Anyone fitted these using just double sided tape because my spoiler does not have the holes?
