After my large issue with backing into a half open garage door, I found my third middle high light (lots of different descriptions I found) doesn't work. Getting it off was a pain to figure out. Posting here to save somebody else time and feel better about mine being wasted.
The spoiler attached to the glass via four t20 flat screws through the window. Also four nuts to the hinges. Remove all those and pop the spoiler up by pinching the plastic clamp coming through the hinge. I found once this was done, closing the glass made things easier. If you are working on an area with 7ft ceiling, you may have trouble manipulating the spoiler to get at the things holding the light on. I found that turning it around the wire loom holding the spoiler down makes it easier to look from what would be the forward facing part of the spoiler. This is where you can access the screws holding the light.
Once you have it turned up, you can see the three screws (purple circles) holding the light in. These are fairly easy to get out with a deep well socket. I like the 1/4 in rachet, makes me break less things. Once these are out, you can use something on the outter plastic studs (white arrow) that need clamped to release. I use bent needle nose pliers. Once you clamped it, you need to rlease the wire harness (green circle) to it. Then it will drop the light out of the spoiler.
