Default Rear spoiler pictures

Does anyone or can anyone post some very close up pics of the underside of there rear spoiler?
Im trying to put mine back together and cant really figure out how and P-car.com is helping a bit but not enough. Some pictures of a assembled spoiler will help. I dont know what most of the metal inserts go.

Thanks.

Here's a few from a spoiler I was disassembling prior to getting repainted. If there is something more specific, let me know and I'll check my other pictures.

Got another question........
The side allen head bolts. is there a rubber gasket between the 2 parts that these bolts hold together?
Also how tight are those bolts supposed to be, because I noticed they turn when the spoiler is going up or down. are they supposed to turn??

There wasn't a washer on mine. The allen bolts are shoulder bolts that rotate in the plastic mount of the actual spoiler. The part the bolt threads into is metal and is part of the mechanism that extends and retracts the spoiler. As long as the bolts are not coming loose, they are supposed to look like the are rotating in the plastic piece, as view from the side, because it is staying fixed on the thread side. I removed the 4 shoulder bolts (2 each side) and used silicon grease to lubricate just the shoulder part of the bolt, not the threads. I wouldn't use anything with a petroleum base because it could cause the plastic to "melt" or soften up. I tightened mine a little tighter than snug - maybe 10 lb-ft. I hope this helps.

I had 4 rubber O rings from the spoiler disassembly and I put them there. Does anyone know where those rubber o-rings go?
