enrique 0 Posted March 4, 2008 Hi all. Have been toying around with every detail I've come across so far, but one I haven't figured out yet, nor found it in the manual. How do I fit the thin spare wheel (95/110/14) under the trunk? It is lays loose in the cage. I bet there's a part missing, but what is it? A box for the jack? A plastic/rubber donut/cone... Now it's sitting behind the passenger's seat, because it will move around in the trunk. I don´t know where the jack goes either. The manual (which is for every possible 205 version) shows it in the right front corner of the engine compartment, but in my case, that space is taken by the air conditioning. Then the manual says "in some models" it goes under the driver's seat. Nothing to fit it to there. Should it just lie around loose under the seat?

Baz 421 Posted March 4, 2008 It does usually go in the engine bay as stated, but if you have air con or it's a later 205 there should be a boss for it to screw into or be held under the seat. As for the spare, it shouldn't be too thin that it doesn't sit in the spare wheel cage under the boot...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim.Badger 15 Posted March 4, 2008 Some of the base models had a pair of rubber cones fitted into the base of the car that stopped the spare wheel from bouncing about in its cage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fencer 0 Posted March 4, 2008 in the trunk you have two holes in which the screw holding the cage goes in, (one of them is closed by a grommet) in your case if the wheel is thin you will need to use the hole on the right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted March 4, 2008 (edited) In cars with air conditioning the jack should go under one of the seats. On one side (I forget which) there should be a screw hole in the cross member - in roughly this sort of place: It might be hard to see with the carpet in the way, and might be on the other side.

enrique 0 Posted March 7, 2008 Thank you guys, so many responses! in the trunk you have two holes in which the screw holding the cage goes in, (one of them is closed by a grommet) in your case if the wheel is thin you will need to use the hole on the right. Tried that and yes, now it fits perfectly and doesn't move!!!! Haven't got to the part of the jack, will look for that boss under both seats this weekend (this is a left hand drive) Thankful, E Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damien 22 1 Cars Posted April 24, 2008 sorry for bumping a old thread. i want to relocate my jack to under the passinger seat, is there a mount or bolt that i need for it to go there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Josh 4 Posted April 24, 2008 sorry for bumping a old thread. i want to relocate my jack to under the passinger seat, is there a mount or bolt that i need for it to go there? The AC model shells have a hole in the drivers inner wing for the receiver/dryer and the extra boss under the passenger seat for the jack, as said above. You could cut out the boss from the inner wing of a scrap car and weld it under your passsenger seat. Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damien 22 1 Cars Posted April 24, 2008 poo to that, was hoping the hole would be there and that i would just need to get some type of braket for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
