2006 Toyota Highlander Spoiler Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to remove and reinstall a rear spoiler on 2006 Toyota Highlander?

  A: The removal process for the rear spoiler starts with taking off back window panel trim upper before removing 2 bolts and the nut attaching the spoiler. Apply the heat light during the heating process to raise the vehicle body temperature along with the rear spoiler to temperatures between 40 to 60 degrees C (104 to 140 degrees F). Avoid overheating. Use a wire attached to wooden blocks to scrape off adhesive tape starting from the wooden block while maintaining a safe distance from both the rear spoiler and body surface if reusing the components. Take steps for installation by heating the body along with rear spoiler surface to 40 to 60 degrees C (104 to 140 degrees F) and then remove any adhesive tape from the body along with staining its surface. The rear spoiler should be heated before reuse to 20 to 30 degrees C (68 to 86 degrees F) so you can remove the adhesive tape and clean it for fresh adhesive tape application according to provided illustrations. Begin by heated rear spoiler and body to 40 to 60 Degrees C (104 to 140 Degrees F) before you lift the spoiler while removing the release sheet very cautiously without letting dirt reach the exposed area. Use your thumbs instead of firm hand pressure. You should reinstall the back window panel trim upper as the last step.
