   Bought a mk2 spoiler for my car, But dont have the holes to bolt it, has anybody tried to drill through theyre rear window to bolt it? or should i just bite the bullet and buy a new rear window? dont really want the option of tigersealing it to the rear window because its abit of a bodge!
   any help would be greatly appreciated!

   Oh, is it not even worth finding out how much a new rear window will cost?

   will be cheaper to buy a 2nd hand boot lid with a spoiler already attached

   Lmao!!! Do this and make a video for you tube, Will be worth the laugh. Automotive glass cannot be drilled with any thing so don't even try it. Buy a new tail gate or a new glass.
