I bought these off the bay of e. Works a treat, saves my fragile back lifting etc.

I think it was Miggit on here who made some a few years back, and offered them to forum members. Still got mine.

They certainly make the job much easier. Trouble now is, on my 2011 car, there is no strap to help pull the spare wheel out the well under the boot. Getting it out without is very...err... interesting 🤣 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Know what you mean, even my local tyre fitter struggled, I invested in this kit and fitted it to the car.

🤣 I knew I’d seen something about the strap before. Can’t remember if mine has the threaded bolt holes.

Does anyone know where I can get the pins for the earlier years (02/05).

Yes Mark it will have. I had the strap on my 2007 and took it off and moved it over to my 12. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜 FFRR 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography Santorini Black. Fiat 500x 1.4 multiair Lounge 2015 2010 LR D4 Commercial 2.7 TDV6 |

If you don't have the pins and struggle to re-fit the wheel, this tip is an old HGV trick.

If you do a search for "Wheel Mounting Pin" there is a number of suppliers. John

Just a quick question. What's the difference between the 02-05 pins and those that fit later years? |
