| 634789 | 2008-01-28 08:43:00 | and can tell me where the wheel brace is hidden? 1998 Model. After much searching, I have found the jack and the extension handle for the jack (under the rear seat) but no sign of a wheel brace. Before I wander to Repco to spend more hard earned $$ I wondered if anyone can tell me the official location in the car for their wheel brace. Cheers |

| 634791 | 2008-01-29 05:59:00 | Nope, pretty sure he means the wheel brace. Are there any panels in the side of the car with clips or hinges? Or if you have a space saver, under that? Or maybe there isn't (or never was) one with it. But don't go to Repco, they'll rip you. If there is a Supercheap Auto, go there. |

| 634793 | 2008-01-29 06:33:00 | Hi Ferg. 1996 three-door model, 220K on the clock. Also under the back seat I found a wee plastic bag containing the wheel brace, a lever-type thing for freeing the small centre hub caps and a couple of other items. The bag and contents now live under the driver's seat. | Scouse (83) | ||

| 634796 | 2008-01-29 07:42:00 | I knew it was the same thing...but over here we don't go by, as Wiki says, "Lug wrench is the U.S. name" |

| 634797 | 2008-01-29 09:43:00 | Lug wrenches are stored in the trunk, we keep a wheel brace in the boot. Also, we have the whole shooting box right way up and firmly on the left hand side of the road. Even cars have accents. |
