• Q: How to Replace the Rear Spoiler Sub-Assembly on 2002 Toyota Camry?

  A: Begin by removing the luggage compartment door cover through clip removal of the 15 fasteners to start the sub-assembly replacement process. Start by unstowing the rear spoiler through the process of unscrewing the 2 nuts followed by protective tape application to the body. Warming the spoiler with a heat light must be done at 40 - 60 degrees C (104 - 140 degrees F) while keeping the heat below these limits. Secure a piano wire with wooden block holders then use the wire to peel adhesive tape following the indicated process while keeping the rear spoiler intact if you wish to reuse it and avoiding body damage. Separate the connector then remove the two clips to detach the rear spoiler. The center stop lamp assembly requires you to dispose of its two bolts to remove the part. Take off protective tape from the rear spoiler while the body mounting surface reaches 40 to 60 degrees Celsius (104 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). Afterwards clean any remaining residue. Follow the same heat temperature procedures for reusing the rear spoiler before cleaning stains off and replacing adhesive tape according to the illustration instructions.
