just to add; unlike (say) the Porsche Boxster I do not believe you can raise the speed sensitive spoiler manually. If anyone knows different I would really appreciate knowing how. Cheers.

Yes the spoiler comes up around 74MPH or something like that, so the police will know your speeding and no theres no button to raise or lower it.

fixed spoiler was approx £3700 option on sl,made of that cheap stuff,carbon fibre!

Thanks guys
I would say it gets volts from the ecu when the relivant speed has been
reached,so maybe tap into wire with switch 12+??
Or it might be that the ecu earths out the neg wire at 75 odd mph.
I would think a lambo tech could test it`s funtion, raise,lower it in
the workshop,or do they have to take it for a spin

on the standard sl, lamborghini simply left out the motor and bolted a cf copy of the standard spoiler in the upper position

The RV camera pod on the spoiler is visible in the RV mirror. The spoiler rises at an indicated 70mph, and lowers at 50mph. I say 'indicated' because the speedometer is always optimistic, and crazily so by the time it reads 70.

Vaguely related: I spotted a white Spyder with black wheels crawling south on East Finchley High Rd last Saturday morning, and it had an SL-style fixed rear wing, ie one that was bigger than the recess into which the normal wing retracts.
