All syncro owners should remove the spoiler immediately.

I would be cautious about using the approach you are contemplating
because it will impair your approach angle. I just use two chains
temporarily attached to hooks I stuck on those two frame members.
The chain does not impair the approach angle. I keep the winch under
the back seat and drag it out when I need it.

For a permanent installation, I would simply bolt the winch down
from the top.
