    Default Will VY senator spoiler fit in the VY HBD spoiler holes

    ok so i was looking at this

    HOLDEN VY VZ SENATOR STYLE BOBTAIL SPOILER + LED LIGHT | eBay

    and it says it fits into the same holes as a SS, SV6 etc spoiler, but from what i have seen of senators, the wing isnt that big to go into the holes, am i wrong?

    also my spoiler has 2 locating bolts that go through the boot, but they are very close to the front of the boot and dont think they would line up with a SS spoiler etc.

    here is what i have and as you can see ity is very small length ways (ontop of the boot), i dont think the senators are much longer and the SS ones are very long.



    so my question is will it fit? i dont want to make more holes than what is there, maybe 1 if i have to for the wiring of the LED brake light (whole reason im getting it) but not 4 more bloody holes lol.

    cheers heaps

    The spoiler in the ebay ad is a senator spoiler yet the one in your pic in this thread is a HBD lip. 2 completely different animals. Once the HBD option 2 spoiler is removed the bootlid will need filling before an HBD lip can be fitted. I've mocked one up on my Calais after removing my option 2 HBD spoiler.

    so the senator spoiler is the option 2 HBD? i know they are different but hoped the holes would be the same (sounds simple enough lol)

    Not quite. The Senator lip only came out on the Senators, option 2 HBD was a full size SS spolier.

    Have a closer look at this photo, this is the best pic of the Senny lip I could find.

    Looks to me like it covers the same boot area that an SS spoiler would, and would therefore cover the holes left in it.
