Hi Everyone,

I ordered a spare tire & mounting bracket off ebay. It only comes with the bar, 2 brackets and 4 bolts. The seller has indicated parts are missing but doesnt know which parts. I am looking for a photo, or schematic illustration of how the wheel mounts in the trunk so I can get an idea of which parts of the mounting bar /hardware setup I am missing. I hope I can get the individual pieces from the dealer. If anyone can help with pics it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you all

HERE (http://www.sendersnj.com/rx8/Mike/spare.pdf) are the instructions and two threads that will provide enough info to tell you that without ALL the parts you will not be able to get an OEM type install. So just let the tire sit in the bottom of the trunk.
