Alex, those are the p/n's for with the spoiler.
If you have the ones for no spoiler, I'm sure they won't be strong enough to hold up the extra weight of the spoiler.


but is this the part number for a spoiler or without one. because where i get my parts, they told me these were the one for without a spoiler.

alex


According to the ETK the torsion spring p/n's should be 41 62 1 809 647 and 648.


i just replace my trunk springs, and the same problem i had before has not gone away, which is the trunk does not want to stay up. Does anybody know what this could be, or could i have put the right spring where the left one goes and vice versa, because the look the same. Also what is the bmw part number for the springs because maybe i bought the wrong ones, as i found out that there is a spring if your trunk has a spoiler or doesnt have one.

thanks in advance
