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!

dont attempt to drill holes in the glass, guarenteed it will shatter :)

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

you can buy tile and glass drill bits there brilliant. i would give it a shot or you could just bond it with windscreen bond it wont go anywhere. heres a link for the type of class cutter required

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.
