Has anyone got their spare wheel on the back door?

You could go to a breakers yard and get a spare wheel carrier off a 4x4 that hinges off the body work. N

Hinges are totally different between MK 3/4/5 and 6/7
I think you'd want a carrier with its own hinges fixed to the pillar independently of the door hinges

Hi Ake,

Thanks for the info, do you think such a carrier is commercially available?

Not that I'm aware of, but you could probably modify something from a LandRover or similar

Hi Guys,

I've decided that I'll replace the underfloor carrier and try and protect the vulnerable bit of cable.

I have been told there are two different carrier systems for the MK7 FWB SWB van, does anyone know the part number of the correct part.

Or where I can find it on the net ( I can't look at mine as it's gone).

Regards,

Paul
