Taking the OEM spoiler off is the hardest part. The clips are kind of difficult to reach, but with a long flat head screwdriver and maybe some long reach needle nose pliers. I'd suggest grabbing some popsicle sticks too. You can get the popsicle sticks between the spoiler and trunk to apply pressure to the clip. Then use the screw driver to press each clips retaining tab. There is a tab on each side of the clip iirc.

I also put some aluminum tape over the OEM trunk holes just as a precaution if the new spoiler/LED didn't create a good water seal against the trunk. I've never had any water in my truck.

Just so you know what's under there. If I remember, I'll take a picture of my OEM spoiler to show you the clips tonight.

Wow! I can't believe Honda thought was necessary to use that many clips to hold down a stick! :rofl:

So this is the 1 I'm thinking about getting in gloss Blackmon my Rallye Red Sport Sedan. Would like some opinions on what everyone thinks.
Will this cover up the stock holes from the OEM spoiler>

No that's why I've decided not to get it. I didn't realize how many clips they used for the OEM spoiler before I had decided on this 1
