Default Installing 92-96 Spoiler? (Pics)

To make a long story short (Cliffs Notes):
- I wanted a 92-96 Spoiler for my 94 SC
- My friends knew I wanted the spoiler
- My friends and I were at the coffee shop
- They made a bet that I couldn't get a girl's number for the spoiler
- They lost the bet and I got the spoiler.

Now here is the problem: I do not know how to install this spoiler. I have searched to no avail. I see many threads about the 97 spoiler but still no concrete answer. I do not just want to line this up "by eye". I would like to have it at OEM placement.

Is there a stencil I can get from Lexus? How did you guys do it? Did you take measurements? Does anyone have those numbers?

Too late to pick up a lid with one already on it. Spoiler was dirt cheap and already painted my color!

Please help me out.

Make a template

Get some poster board and trade where to cut the holes and then line it up on the trunk and have at it!

I did it by myself which I really don't recommend. I put some assembly lube I had sitting around on the holes and then put it on the trunk so I knew where to drill.

Once again, it's so much easier if you have a friend there I'm sure.

^^^ works like a charm, I used white liquid hand soap.
