Default removing techart type III wing, back to OEM

Hi, I have searched all day to find answers to my question on many sites but this one seems to have more moembers so here goes.
2005 997 with fixed Techart type III wing. I want to remove it and install the OEM spoiler but my body shop guy cut a group of wires onthe harness. I know one plug goes to the light, one to the 3rd spoiler brake light, one to the fan and the 2 wires (red) and (black) plug into the drive motor. I can not find where the 5 brown wires plug into. I know they were spliced to eliminate the error light on in the car but now I think I have a missing connector and I need to know where to plug it.
Any photos would be awesome and I would be willing to sell this Techart wing cheap to anyone that can help.
Thank you again.

Thank you

Not sure about the wiring but interested in your spoiler. Curious why you are switching back to oem?

Welcome Raydar4130!

Your inquiry is what this forum is all about. I to joined the same way and have tried to give back as much support that I had received.

To you queation, I have a 07' 997.1 C4S Cab can will try to take some pics later today and post here for you. I'll also see if I can identify what wires go where.

I had been contemplating getting the techart type 3 wing and would be interested possibly in your old wing. Assuming it would fit an 07'.

That techart wing looks beautiful on the car why are you removing? Anyways i will also try to post for you the wiring diagram. Are you familiar with schematic diagrams? There. You will find out how all those wires are connected. Later.

Default Wing

I did the exact same thing last year. Bought parts on line, never had a problem with wiring though.

YEah great pictures man but I really need to see the wiring in the deck lid. I have a group of wires cut and cant seem to find a place to plug them. I may be missing parts.

Question: did you find the wing interfered with your ability to use the Targa's rear hatch?

I have the same car! I'm looking for a smaller TechArt spoiler that fits onto the OEM but I can't find it.

I found it! http://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-2011-Po...#ht_2412wt_932
