wsix installer (.net) set permissions on installed path

Question

In my project i have WSIX installer which install app on IIS server. I have problem because app is run by IIS USER (when hosted on IIS) and i need to add permissions to one of file for this user. How can i do it using WSIX installer? I mean, how to get installation path after installation and then call powershell script or program after installation, which will receive path and execute piece of code with using this path? I Have tried this: Wix - How to run exe files after installation from installed directory? but i don't know how to get installation path (this is place where i will be store additional program/script).

i'm sorry just read some comment in topic above and it works like a charm

<CustomAction Id="EXECUTE_AFTER_FINALIZE"
                  Directory="INSTALLFOLDER"
                  Execute="immediate"
                  Impersonate="no"
                  Return="asyncNoWait"
                  ExeCommand="[INSTALLFOLDER]PostInstallation.exe" />

    <InstallExecuteSequence>
      <Custom Action="EXECUTE_AFTER_FINALIZE" After="InstallFinalize">NOT Installed</Custom>
    </InstallExecuteSequence>

of course before that i included .exe and .dll files into installer
