[MR2] MKII Spare Wheel/Tire

[bob-schultz at comcast.net]

Actually, Spare Tires, Jack and other misc stuff from the trunk is one of the first thing to disappear from a car at the salvage yard.

Car Auctions and customers for some reason seem to remove those parts for no apparent reason.

I can remember chasing after jacks and misc trunk parts more than I care to admit.
