Default Spoiler Fitting kit or a few bolts?

Hello I've ordered a spoiler but I also need a fitting kit. The spoilers going on to standard 850 that originally came without a spoiler and I'm unsure what I need to bolt it on? Can anyone help? Even if its just nuts and bolts I need?

Just binned a S70 rear spoiler at weekend. Otherwise you could have had the bits for free if I knew anyone wanted it. Think they might of been similar. I bought it as a joblot of parts, and it was different colour to mine. Always ones on ebay that never sell, as its a part of the car that gets rarely damaged and they're common.
Sorry.

There are two kits for these ,
1, early version uses sturdy brackets which hold the spoiler on , there are adhesive pads which make the spoiler stable .

2 , The later spoiler kit was larger adhesive pads which held the spoiler on, and a weaker metal bracket stabilised it .. so they often came loose

note the differences in wording ..

The early fitting kit is far superior and the later kit was superceeded to the older kit ...

If all that makes sense !
