Looking to remove the spare wheel and lower the boot floor in a 2016 4x4 Yeti - can this be done?

Featured Replies

I am looking to remove the spare wheel and lower the boot floor in a 2016 4x4 Yeti - so that there is a larger flat area once the seats are removed. This is what my searches have brought up regards doing this:

"With the Haldex four-wheel-drive system, the rear differential and 4x4 running gear sit directly beneath the boot. To accommodate those parts, Skoda manufactured the metal floor pan of the 4x4 chassis with a raised "hump". Even without a spare wheel, a 4x4 Yeti's standard floor sits a few inches higher than a 2WD version."

This seems to mean that if I remove the spare wheel and the raised boot floor, I would then need to buy a boot floor which is made specifically for the shape of the wheel well in a 4x4 Yeti.

Is this correct?

Any comments gratefully received.

Also sorry for posting twice, I cannot delete my earlier post.
