Default OEM xB spoiler mounting (need P/N help)

Okay spoiler mounting Gurus, here's a challenge for you!

I recently got a OEM spoiler from a guy that didn't include the mounting hardware (he didn't get the hardware and the car has been crushed) I've searched for this info but could not find it. Does anyone have or know of a suitable substitute for the OEM hardware to mount the OEM rear spoiler?

I've contacted the closest Scion dealer (Quality Scion in Fort Walton Beach, FL) and also Scion corporate, both say no P/N for the mounting kit (called "Hardware Bag" in the instructions). From the description it looks like the top bolts are 10mmX24, and connect to rubber well nuts,
those should be easy to get at the hardware store, the grommets are the thing that that have me stumped. They are for holding the pins/studs that attach to the horizontal face of the spoiler.

Any ideas on the substitute for the "Grommets"

Thanks for the assist!

Herb

I just installed my PW spoiler.

The screws are "M6x24 Stud Bolt". These go into the 14mm well nuts, which are rubber with a steel flat washer type flange.

The "grommet" is a molded plastic insert/plug with a slotted hole and flange. Pic from instructions:



It seems like a hard rubber insert, size 12 mm, with a pin hole of around 3/16" would work.
Or something could be machined easily enough from Delrin / Teflon / Nylon, etc.
If its a harder material than rubber, the slot is a necessity since the pins on the spoiler are angled slightly.

BTW, I can send you copies of the mounting templates if it helps. PM me. Of course, I take no responsibility for you drilling your hatch!

How can I get a copy of your template for mounting the Rear Wing on 1st xB?
