Fitting spare wheel under the boot floor in a Tesla Model Y

Fitting spare wheel under the boot floor in a Tesla Model Y

I purchased a space saver spare wheel for my 2024 Tesla Model Y. In this video I try to mount it under the trunk floor. This isn’t an edited step by step guide, but instead I filmed it as I worked out how to do this and have left in my mistakes, so it will help anyone else not do the same. Jump to 07:53 to see where I started after correcting my mistakes.
I purchased a 19" steel space saver spare wheel as it was cheaper than the aluminium spares like the Modern Spare or Road Hero. It also has an added benefit in that it’s narrower and will be easier to fit under the boot floor. To find out more about space saver and tools, see https://youtu.be/LFpGqYuj2jk.
