Im looking for a template/info on where to mount the type x wing on the rear hatch of an s13. Like where to drill etc. in exact measurements. I googled a bit and found a few sites but nothing with good helpful pics. Or most of them were answered with more questions. If you have done this before or know of a template or something of that nature it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This thread, last 2 posts of page 1. I need a template to mount OEM 180SX spoiler to correct specs...HELP : 240sx General Discussion (http://forums.nicoclub.com/i-need-a-template-to-mount-oem-180sx-spoiler-to-correct-specs-help-t450803.html)
Other than those, which are kinda vague; look at lots of pics of Type-X 180's from different angles. As long as it's on there straight & the uprights aren't hanging off the back or anything crazy, it will look fine. GL!

Other than stock fitment, I think a lot of folks mount it as far back as possible. But anyway, here:

Thanks for the input guys. One more question though. when i bought my wing from a local importer it came with minor hardware including nuts for the bolts that are actually part of the wing. and the surface of the wing looks like it has little black circles around each hole. For sealing purposes i assume. Is there anything else i need to make sure it doesn't leak?

You can go around the base of the uprights with sealant when you get it where you want it... or better yet- get small, thin rubber washers to help seal around the holes where it goes thru the hatch. Definitely a good idea to keep moisture from getting inside. After the first time you get stuck in the rain, take a couple minutes to check inside there to make sure to make sure whatever you did to seal it remaines dry.
