Default Re: Fragile Spoiler

Suggestion: I’ve bought parts from this place in Rhode Island for all my past Honda’s and for my current Insight. They are typically 33% less then what you would pay from you dealership. I’ve used them many times and they are reliable, ship things quick, answer email questions within a day or two and are good about returns.



They sell pretty much every Honda part you could think of and have great diagrams so you can find whatever part you need, they are the same diagrams the dealerships part department has from Honda.



If you have an earlier Insight (like me a 2000) I suggest first finding your part in one of the later years using the diagrams (like 2005), they have better resolution and are the same thing so it’s a little easier to read the text. If you have trouble finding anything, just email them.



They’re also great for wipers, air filters etc.



Just for example, their price for the rear spoiler is 105.18, about 31% less then what you paid. There

Anyway, Hope that helps for future purchases.

On the hatchback door, the spoiler covers the area where the two sheets of glass meet (long sloping one & short vertical one). The third tail light in in the assembly.

Anyway, this morning I backed out of the garage just before the door had cleared, busting the spoiler off the Insight. Only good thing is it was a clean break that did not damage anything else. As Insight owners might suspect, it's plastic with five bolts. It will be replaced Wed - $153 parts - $99 labor.
