Hi! I got a flat tyre recently. When I went to fit the space saver spare wheel I discovered the shorter bolts supplied with same were missing. I checked a couple of spares sites ( Europarts, Autodoc etc) and found nothing which corresponded. Any ideas on OEM parts numbers and/or who could supply these either s/h or new? Cheers, Ian

I genuinely don't know what bolts you mean or do you mean the retaining screw that keeps the spare secure in the boot?

I wasn't aware that the standard wheel nuts weren't compatible with the space saver.If they aren't where in the car should I find the spare wheel ones.?😉

Hi Davenports and thanks for responding. I actually called out my breakdown service. The mechanic said the standard bolts were too long and would foul other components. Unless he was wrong it seems shorter bolts are required. So far I have failed to clarify this conundrum. Anyone know better??  🙂🙃
