Perhaps I better qualify what I said earlier
I had to remove the grey insert in order to fit the 18" Hairpin spare in to my ZT-T so I assumed all full size spares would get in the way

Maybe later grey inserts had a smaller bowl thingy?

Here you go, grey thing minus lid!

Can't understand why they deleted the lid first. Could understand making the tray totally flat so that the bigger wheels would fit.
But then it seems that nobody could be bothered to do that and to save money they decided not to fit it anyway.
Pity, its really useful and of course adds to the sound deadening a bit.It also makes you think when you open the main strorage lid that a lot of thought went into the design and finish of the car.
The storage tray and lid were manufactured by a German company and are the only parts on the car that I've found parts labels that state R41 on them.
