If it is a direct bolt on from a 94/95, then the one back hole lines up. Then, you'll need to measure for the front one, and drill a hole, and then either drill a bigger hole, or dremel/burr grind a hole out for the bolt head. Its not a terrible job, just be careful. You will have exposed holes though. the most inside and rear hole, and the center ones.

i'd take it to a body shop, only ~2 of the like...8 holes are used. center needs patched... it's just a bunch of crap. --------------------  |

it means that the 94/95 have a 2 post spoiler, and if you had that (you don't) then the spoiler would bolt right on and things would be gravy. From 96/99 they have a 3 post spoiler. In this case the spoiler will not just directly bolt up, you will need to drill some holes to get it to fit. This will also leave your center spoiler holes (from stock spoiler) exposed. They will need to be filled.

i believe you can go a couple routes.
you can weld underneath and then just bondo fill or you can be more practical and FG it, then bondo to smooth it out. i just dont know how much weaker it will make the hatch to the stress the TRD will put on it, and if the bondo/FG will handle it.
