larceny fink 10 Posted April 30, 2012 My late VR has a space saver but is not fixed to the stud on bottom of spare wheel well. Tool kit is in there as well. Spare wheel is making a squeaking noise when car is driven so I need to secure it to the stud - how and with what is it fixed? I have tried a spare wheel nut from mk2 as that has space saver but not long enough to reach stud. Any help greatly appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

larceny fink 10 Posted April 30, 2012 cheers chaps, I did see that on ebay and wondered if that is what I needed. I guess spare wheel goes face down for the nut to reach the stud? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
