Boot spare wheel carpet
« on: 09 November 2020, 12:15:20 »
Hello everyone,
Does anyone know the part name or number  for the little plastic poppers that hold the spare wheel cover in place?  Mine are at the roadside somewhere in France, they always come out from the carpet whenever you remove it.

Replace them with some heavy duty  velcro sewn on to the carpet, and stuck to the metal.
This also makes a workable repair for the centre console armrest lid.

One of the better features of the Mk2 Granada  :y

Velco tabs on the wheel retaining strap and on the carpet cover. Always worked and never fell off 8)
