yeh have tool kit with carpet cover, also have the wheel cover carpet.
when i bought the car i saw the cover and just didnt think to check if there was a wheel under it

You saying you got one of those stupid little rubber bands, that you see on those little micras with punctures etc .
so is that the standard spare, does it clear the brakes???

anyone got pics of the original set up?

Default Space saver

Hello mate, they are Cossie specific, plus they are NLA from Ford. I have a spare one available, if you want it, let me know, and I'll sort a price out.

Cheers, Gez
