Can anyone give me the measurements of the pedestal bolts center to center.
Mine is 36"
Is this an A Body ? Are they all 36" ?

Is there a part # to be found on it ?

Just a heads up, take your stud-to-stud dimensions at room temp/in the shade. I removed the wing of my e-body and couldn't get it back on. I had left it laying in the sunlight and it expanded from the heat. The studs wouldn't go back in the same holes I just took them out of an hour ago. It wasn't that warm outside, maybe 75 or 80? At any rate, I brought it in the house and cooled it off for 5-10 minutes and it fit right back in the holes.
 
Many times the trunk hood etc that can have a bolt on option will have some form of marking. Maybe a hole in the frame or the like that the nuts would be accessed through weather the bolt on accessory is installed or not
 
I have several Go and gull . they all measure 36 inches stud to stud. A friend is having the same issuen and just measured them for him. When the wing is hot you can arc the spoiler changing the distance the studs are apart.
Original spoilers when mounted through the inside bracket at 36 should arc up in the middle. (Orange car) Many of the after market spoilers I see sag in the center after being mounted in the 36 inch spread holes drilled using the brackets as a template. You can always tell a OEM spoiler from a aftermarket by the sag. (Yellow car) , This is what happens when you put an after market spoiler in the original spaced holes.

I don't have the deck lid !!! Just the wing.
 
First buy the inner brackets and mount them. Then take the wing and make sure the studs fit the bracket spread . The holes for the wing in the brackets should be 36 inches apart factory. Or the measurement of the aftermarket spoiler your using. Then using the brackets as a template drill the holes.

If you don't have a trunk for a spoiler The small phillips screw holes for the bracket are also 36 inches apart or your stud spread, You will need to cut the holes for the bracket. Always use the inner bracket or the spoiler will bent the sheet metal . The bracket holds it firm from rocking.

Thinking about ditching my MAP (thick) wing for factory go wing.
Does anyone know if the factory wing will fit on the aftermarket pedestal?
Are the trunk bolt mounting locations are the same when swapping with the factory unit?

Before it gets installed I could Reverse engineer it for the Future. I would just need to barrow it for a week.

PM me if your interested and find the pone you might have
