I think he's looking for info on fitting an M-Tech 2 BOOT spoiler. I got the fitting kit which was 2 plastic brackets which fit on ends of spoiler clamping it to boot-lid. Plastic nuts are used (6 required) to fit bottom part of spoiler to boot-lid. I obtained the brackets and nuts from dealer. Have no dimensions for holes as boot-lid had smaller spoiler, and holes are in same place.

I'm not sure what spoiler you have got, lip spoiler, or mtech 1 or 2. The mtech spoilers should be fitted with upgraded torsion springs on the boot lid. Otherwise the additional weight of the spoiler stops the boot lid staying open properly. You can get away without the stronger springs, but just be warned the bootlid slams shut very easily with the extra weight...

That works first class. used it last month spot on. I put masking tape on the are's that the holes are to go, and as thay all say measure loads of times and drill once. One word of worning the two sets of end nuts will break the plastic end caps if you give them to much grunt.
