Default Does it have Sphyrna on the front? Generally, running without...>>>

counterweight can cause the Sphyrna condition which is generally fatal without the counterweight.

Rotsa ruck, fella. Your time is limited... ;-)

Default Not too bad.. about 20 minutes work

1. Jack up car and remove rear wheels
2. Remove wheel well liner
3. Open hatch and pop off plastic trim pieces at corners.
4. Remove 4 T20 screws on top, 2 T20 screws on Valence.
5. Remove 4 hex head bolts inside wheel wells.
5a. (optional) remove tailight assembly by loosening thumb screws inside access panels.
6. Lift off.
