Default Civic Rear Duckbill Measurements Needed

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to measure your rear duckbill of any type to tell me how wide they are at the mounting position.

Also how exactly do they mount to the hatch?

Thanks

no, similar. all the tomas sport cars have that exhaust. I know one of you has a wing sitting around.

I need:

1) Width of hte mounting portion
2) Total Width
3) How does it mount to the hatch

I have an EK duckbill sitting here that I could measure up for you, if you explicitly tell me what you need measured.

He needs the width of the part where it mounts to the hatch, not including any part where it sticks farther in for stylistic purposes. does that make sense?

thanks

where does it bolt to?

I really need how wide the part is before it starts to curve down and for someone to explain to me how it mounts

The spots that I have marked in blue are where the bolts are located. The part that mounts to the car is actually a fiberglass piece that is mounted inside the duckbill. When the bolts are tightened down, this fiberglass piece pulls the duckbill against the rear window holding it steadily in place.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "the part before it starts to curve down" but if you can find a way to show me I'll measure it for you.

Mine is for an EK.

I'll measure it in a minute and take pics of what I'm measuring to make sure I'm measuring the right part.
