very interesting subject because I want to change my 4/4 for a +4, and I don't really like the look of the additional spare wheel.
However, I can't find the reference of this part, can someone help me? Not all +4 have the recess for a spare - if you can find a car like mine you gain a decent amount of hidden away storage, there's a wide, long but thin slot that runs under the back panel, accessed from inside the car at the rear of the parcel shelf. It's big enough to fit a pair of side screens, tool roll, electric tyre pump etc. I sometimes have to leave a laptop in there, a casual thief wouldn't find it, especially if the roof is down. ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2022/12/12/IMG_4704.jpeg) Sorry to thread hijack. Looks the same colour as mine what do you know the colour as? Thanks.

Might be a silly question, but is the size of the recess for the spare & therefore the diameter of the cover, different on different models?
Is the overall diameter of the 15" & 16" wheels different or does a different tyre profile mean they end up the same.

I have 15" alloys on mine & the gap is quite large so I assume the formed hole in the rear panel in the same for 16's too

As far I know the hole on the later trads is the same size. There is a wider gap on my Roadster with low profile tyres than on my Plus 4 with 70 series, which has a much smaller gap.
