It's for changing the oem springs to stiffer springs when you put on a rear spoiler.

Don't change the spring Steve. I did when I got the OEM wing and changed back as soon as I could. The stiffer ones don't fit right and make noise rubbing each other. They don't make much of a difference anyway.

Thanks for the advice. The stock spoiler isn't that heavy, and I haven't noticed much difference in the lid not staying up. I will just keep the regular springs then.

Don't do it! Not needed as Harpoon stated.
Ditto.
