      camaro experts I need your input about rear spoilers

      I tried looking it up on the net and couldn't find the answers:
      1) whats the length and width of a 67-68 vs the 69 rear camaro spoiler?
      2) is the height the same?
      3) also do they use the same mounting holes for both models (can you pull off your 68 spoiler and put on a 69 without drilling holes?)

      thanks guys

      The 67 and 68 are the same, The 69 is longer because the body is a little wider. Yes you can install any year on a 69 but the 67,68 will be a little shorter. You cant install the 69 on the 67,68 because they are to long. Hope this helps.

      some early 69's used 68 spoilers. there was a template on the net and I can't seem to find it now.

      that would be greatly appreciated - I don't really need the measurements for the 67-68 as I own that one, was just wondering how much bigger the 69 was and weather or not it used the same bolt holes so you don't have to drill new ones - I'm not using this on a camaro which Is why I'm asking - I'm using it on a 71 plymouth roadrunner It turned out nice but I wish it was about 2-3" longer, i just read today that the 69 ones are bigger but I can't find out any info on them. If the bolt holes are the same I may just buy a 69 rear spoiler and sell the 68 one. Here it is mocked up on my car:

      I have a 68 spoiler on my 69 and didn't even know until a guy with a 68 pointed it out a few months ago, I've owned the car since 1995! now when I see it I can't help but notice that it doesn't go all the way to the sides of the car. I believe the mounting holes are identical between the 2 since in older pics of the car the previous owner gave me it had a 69 spoiler on it. Hope this helps

      As long as the mounting holes are in the same spot, I think I'll just buy the 69 spoiler and sell the 68 spoiler

      the 69 spoiler came in and its exactly 2" longer - just the length I need! although the 68 spoiler is almost a 1/4" taller in height, they are the same width in the base. The mounting holes are suppose to be the same, except it all depends on who fiberglassed them in place and where. I had to file each hole a bit, or alot, to make it fit but it was close. Pics for those who are interested:

      67-68 top length

      67-68 height
