    I've had an Uncle Ray protector ever since I lost my second spare wheel on my D3. Once I realised that it was available I bought one and I haven't lost one since. I have it on my D4 for the last 4 years and 7 years on my D3, never had a moments trouble with it. Simple solution but clever too.

    Is this fix also applicable to the space saver spare wheel?


    Has anyone ever had one of these stolen?

    Security enhancement

    Whilst my vehicle was in for some updates, (service warning, door handle covers, infotainment-still waiting!) The spare wheel mods were carried out. The general opinion in the workshop, was that Ray's plate was a far better device than the item supplied by JLR.
    The additional winch cable protection was fitted, but my original plate was refitted, as it offered a closer fit in the wheel and did not leave the tube at the end of the winch cable exposed.
    The tube, if some thieving Censored had the time and inclination, could be cut and the cable then compromised.
    At least JLR customer service are listening to us!

    Hi, once this is fitted is it possible to inflate spare wheel without removing?

    All,

    SWMBO's was supposed to have this fix at her last service - I checked last night and saw no difference and nothing deleted from TOPIX. I asked the Dealer today what I should look for and was told that it wasn't done due to lack of parts at the time - they now have them but ....they did give me the TSB - I can cut'n'paste the text but not the pictures.

    Here's the important bit(s)

    Here is a photo of the anti theft kit 2 which the dealer recently installed. (Still a bit of space around the edges compared too Ray's one).

    Am looking too buy either a space saver or a full sized spare as I dont want the new one getting damaged/corroded, with all the salt, etc.

    Will a RRS full size fit?? (PCD). I need a 22 inch wheel Thumbs Up

    I was thinking the same DG and doubling it up, but if going for a space saver there is no point I thought, plus the factory one may not fit let alone Ray's one Laughing

    Lol that's another reason why i rather get a space saver than loose the original alloy. Contemplating buying a used wheel. Don't care if it's got a bit of kerb rash, as long as it doesn't leak air am happy. Laughing
