In theory one would think the mounting point would be exactly in the centre of the opening. In my case the snorkel brake light occupies part of the top of the opening and the tyre is already pressed up hard against it. I am going to have to adjust the mounting of the tail light to make it stand a little more upright so that it is exactly square to the tyre, at the moment it leans slightly to the back. The mounting point for the spare will have to be adjusted down by about 5mm or a little more. Fortunately the holes in the bracket are elongated to allow adjustment.
