BMW E36 M3 Spoiler Brake Light Replacements

[woff91]

Hello everyone, faced such a problem: the old wire from the spoiler is not functional anymore (short, torn, it is impossible to use it anymore).
I tried to pull it out to stretch a new one - and here they are, the old wiring is “flooded” with rubber of which the spoiler consists. How to stretch a new wire?
May be somebody faced such problem and will prompt how to carry out a new wire in a spoiler?

I'm pretty sure you'll need to remove the spoiler... feeding those wires through the spoiler to the trunk harness with the spoiler installed will be practically impossible.

Option: cut existing wires at harness (inside trunk lid) tie string (or dental floss) to the ends and pull them out via the spoiler (so pull string/floss from trunk lid to spoiler) and then use that string/floss to pull the new wires back in. I'm not sure that'll work though.

Thank you for you answer, spoiler is removed ( I just bought it and want it to install, but those wires...))
"tie string (or dental floss) to the ends and pull them out via the spoiler" - sounds like a good idea, I will try, thank you!

Thank you, I will try it too... but it seems the wire is filled with silicone :-(
