Hi, anyone know if there is similar available in the UK? (I believe this is in Australia).

996 turbo was considering making them to go behind the tailgate, you could PM him.

I'm toying with the idea of bolting my spare to the bonnet.
That'll mean that I have to relocate the screen washer jets and find some means of propping the bonnet. Then I'll need a bracket of some sort - any thoughts team?

The, in the boot space, wouldn't work for me. It is where the CD changer and subwoofer sit. Also you would have to remove the wheel to get to the now unused original wheel well. And loose a lot of boot space. Would be interested in an external, behind the tailgate though. Used to have a Pivtel on one of my 3.9 Classics which was wonderful. Land Rover did experimented with a rear foof mount on the classic and did some tests, looked good but was deemed too hard to lift a wheel of and on. Shame
On the bonnet, No.

Here are a few ideas. All custom builds by the look of it though.

I think the original wheel space is taken up by the LPG toroidal tank

I have the LPG tank in the spare wheel well. i have one of those vinyl covers on the wheel in the boot space, however, for all the carting around, i have yet to use one. Generally i take it out when needing lots of boot space, otherwise it stays in there.
