Just wondering what the red plastic things are in the boot, any ideas?

I have no idea what they are, but whatever it is, I bet they are more useful than the shit jack sitting next to them. My guess is nipple clamps!

I've just checked the manual and apparently, they are fanny magnets. Keep them safe, you might need them.

Now you mention it, like gsd2000 says I don't think I have them either. I just have the useless space saver (which don't fit) a crap jack and a can of tyre weld. I will have a look in the manual tomorrow and give you a shout if you don't have one.

Not got em in mine, but would assume they slot over the jacking points to spread the weight? IMHO....maybe?

I looked at that spreading the weight bit, but no way do they fit anything under the car? so odd what they are for, seems like no one else has them so far

I aint got them either.

Its a usefull boot in our cars, the jacks a joke, the yellow thing to remove the nut caps is utterly useless, the spare I wouldnt dare drive on it especially on the back, not much of anything really!!

Could they be anything to do with towing? Some kind of gadget you wrap the rope round so the knot don't get pulled too tight.

They are transit blocks for the front springs. Fitted during transport. What they are doing in your boot however is a mystery.

Makes our cars a bit special and probably adds at least a grand to the value of the car smile
