I relised if I want to check tyre pressure I will need to take rim and Bling LR cover off

Is there such things as tyre valve extentions ? So I can leave it conneted to the tyre and have the other end sticking out towards the outside so I can hook up my air compresser to top up ? Im guessing they would need to be about 6-8" long, and flexable.

I would prefur to make something so any ideas would be great.

Supercheap have just such a thing. It screws onto the tyre valve and the other end of the hose is connected to a remote mounted bracket. All you do is unscrew the remote valve cap and inflate the tyre. Bought one myself just two days ago for a job I'm planning to do. These things allow you to inflate a spare in the boot without unloading it.

Just checked mine, details: KC Spare Air Part number is KC500.

Thanks Trev & Mick.

Mick that sounds like "The Ducks Guts" (ie Just what I need & looking For) your a champ.

Any chance of a pic and do you remember how much it was....just a guess will do....wont hold it against you if you are a few cents off

I ask for a pic becuase if Im busy I can just drop in to the store and say "Do you Have these in stock" instead of standing there trying to explin to a very nice 18yr Girl whats on my mind ....hang on .... oh...I mean what Im looking for , and then tell the same story to the boss and so it go's !

Or I can just send the wife in to pick one up....and the Extention too of course

so....why all the headaches described above.......just inflate it if you need to use it....

i threw my spare on the roof racks three years ago......i cant remember ever checking the pressure in it.......

not picking on you....just trying to understand why all the worry......
it will only take a few minutes to inflate it from dead flat.....(if it was that flat)....




but now that i know about these extensions.....i will probably chase one up for the wifes falcon.....
she doesnt carry a compressor.....just a mobile phone......
(and my number ).....
and the spare in that sits face down with the jack in the middle of it.....
