Installation questions

After searching for about 20 years for a whale tail, I finally got one.
I pulled it from a junkyard but am unsure if it was installed correctly.
I've never really looked at how the regular spoiler is installed but the whale tail had 4 screws through what seemed to be factory drilled holes through the hatch which I imagine is how the regular spoiler attaches. There were also 2 screws that went through square cutouts in the hatch which also looked factory and had square plastic plugs in them. I'm probably going to have to fill all of the holes and re-drill/screw the whale tail. I was surprised that there were no captive nuts that you just bolt it onto.
I was wondering how yours attaches: number of screws and approximate locations.
Thanks!
