Two months into owning the Superb, I finally dug my space saver out of the loft today.

 

(My rejected MK4 Octavia came with a full size spare, the more expensive Superb came with no spare...).

 

Anyway, this is about my 25th car and I have never ever seen a clamp/bolt fitting in the wheel well, as in the photo I've attached, on any other car.

 

I know my engineering head will be able to cobble together my own DIY solution using bits and bobs from B&Q, but I'd rather have a neater/proper solution.

 

So, has anyone ever seen a clamp that fits this? Anybody using one?

 

 

 

 

Yes ..   it's a threaded plastic t bar arrangement.  The t bar goes through the slit and turns 90 degrees with the threaded part sticking up.  There is then a wide plastic threaded disc or 'nut' that goes on top and tightens down keeping the spare in place and the t bar in position

Just check any listing is the right one though asvoi think they come in different lengths...
