Default Factory Spoiler

The spoiler on my F-Type deploys at 70 MPH and retracts at 50 MPH. Does anyone know if there is a way to change those parameters? I'd like to have independent control of it actually, but being able to set it to say 45 and 25 would fit my desires.

There are already a couple of threads and a few posts about this but the short answer is "no".

Okay, what about forcing the spoiler into the permanently deployed position?

Yes, there are a number of threads here on how to do that.

I put the spoiler where I want it then turn off the switch that I installed in the hatch lid. The switch disconnects the motor. I get a clearable warning "spoiler not available" only if I exceed about 110mph. The switch I installed is hiding behind the switch to close the hatch. I can easily pull that switch out by hand to access it, then pop it back in.
