Jack and lugnut wrench location on 3.0 Si

[Luis A.]

I'm trying to lay out the jack and lugnut wrench but even looking at my pre-restoration pictures, the wrench location doesn't feel right to me.

Does anyone have any pictures showing how the trunk layout?

Isn't it like the big bumper 2002s, left side next to fender with jack and lug wrench side by side?

I can take some pictures of that area in the polaris Si after work today.

ahh, I have always wondered about this too. In the excitement of starting my restoration 4 years ago, I pulled everything out of the rusty trunk and violated the rule of keeping track of where everything goes. Most times things are intuitive,but not this. Thanks in advance.

Luis,

From your introduction post on this e3:

Hi Chris thanks yes I have that picture but even though it looks on the picture like the wrench sits okay it fits awkwardly in my opinion. It doesn't quite get clamped down by the bracket. I'd like to see from someone else if this is really how it came from the factory.

Good morning gents,

I took a few pictures showing the trunk in my Si. This should be the original position AFAIK.

Thanks. Clearly different. Maybe it's a US-Europe or a model year thing. Mine would be impossible to lay out like that given the studs placement and the type of bracket on mine.

I'll check if there is a difference between the Si and the 1st Series 2800 as soon as I'm back from travelling.
