Spare wheel kit - what are all the spaces for?

Featured Replies

I have the official vRS spare wheel kit and I’ve managed to find the correct spaces for all the tools apart from 1- the Alan key. 
does anyone know where this is supposed to fit? 
also, does anyone know what the other spaces are for? I wondered  if the compressor from the repair kit would fit like it does on the Golf kit, but it doesn’t. 
 

there seems to be a lot of wasted space otherwise 🤔

 

(tried searching for this, but the search function isn’t very good!) 

Mine looks like this. All the spaces are full but I have the removable towbar so maybe that’s the gap you have

Thanks, do you have the small Alan key? Any ideas where that’s supposed to go? 

No Allen key but have a small Allen key shaped star key with a flat head on the other side. That seems to slot in top left. I also have the below which doesn’t seem to have a home

I’ll give it a go, thanks! 

You’re welcome. You’ve made me actually pull the tow bar out and check it dit’s which I’d been ignoring for a month 😉

Doesn’t the double sided screwdriver go in the end of the wheel nut brace?  Try it.

Did you have fun fitting the tow bar? 

I was convinced mine didn't fit the first time i tried it, that was because the arm at the side was closed. Done it a few times now, there a great piece of kit. 🧐

Yeah but of a faff. My last one (tow trust) slotted in more easily, this one needed a bit of wd40 to get the lock and lever to work but eventually worked out.

Can confirm the screwdriver fits under the jack handle. Right angled key thing just fits where you said 👍
