Puma Bonnet Spare wheel

[juddy]

As its got the buldge, can one be fitted?

[weeds]

anything is possible........how much vision to you want?

[Shonky]

Dunno for sure, but I would think it would stick up too high. It's bad enough on a standard bonnet.

It would also be angled forward and sit funny I would have thought?

[Psimpson7]

I doubt it. You're not even supposed to fit one on a TD5

Is the Puma bonnet bulge strong enough to walk around on? They didn't let me try at the dealership - I thought it was integral to buying a Defender.

I would guess it would be illegal to fit a spare wheel mount on the bonnet as one has never been fitted to a PUMA at factory AFAIK......

And being as though it impedes vision on a standard bonnet I can't imagine you getting it engineered to either

The other problem would be the roof leaking after fitting the periscope.

I agree with what DB said, you wouldn't pass a roadworthy inspection with it.

That aside though the bulge means the tyre would be raised considerably and your line of site would be terrible. Just wouldn't work. Look at a picture of a Puma and notice how far up the firewall the bulge actually sits.

[muddymech]

how would you lift the bonnet, a s11 with skinny spare is hard enough.

You would just have to drive by ear
