hatchback spoiler removal
Can anyone tell me how to remove (without breaking) the rear spoiler on a 92 civic hatchback. I need to seal a leak and I dont want to trash it.
Thanks in advance

ps one thing that I did find out some of the cracks in the seam sealer did not sow up unless it was really cold out. So I did have to do a little more work up in the rain ch to get everything water tight

I have been working on sealing this thing up for about 2 months now off and on.
Starting to really **** me off. At first I thought it was the rear hatch weather stripping. I re-glued the gasket and sealed the electrical boots in the upper drip rail. Also found a crack in the rain channel above the LR taillight and sealed that up. Still got lots of water in heavy rain. Stuck my buddy inside of it one night sprayed it with a hose and figured out most of it was coming from behind the drivers side tail light! It had been tapped there in the past and it split the seam between the 1/4 panel and the rear valance. Fixed that and assumed everything was good until the next rain. Getting light water around the top of the rear window now. I am down to the hinge mounts and the seals thru the rear glass. I wanted to pop the spoiler so I could seal the rubber gaskets and go from there. Its been a struggle but its starting to get sealed up. I am down to a cup of water after a rain instead of a gallon or two. Thanks for the feedback and good post. I will update after the next try
