tire carrier for a softop

hi,

Looked everywhere for one, anyone know where online I can buy a rear tire carrier? I only seem to be able to find ones for the full doors.

Thanks

Depends where you want to put it chap. You could either get a swing way one for the back OR a rear bulkhead bracket for in the back ( thats if you have a rear bulkhead )... Putting Dreams on Drives at JLR Solihull..

Thought about the rear bulkhead solution but would prefer have it outside.

Yes, I can, but only because I have made a simple mod to the carrier to move the wheel about 6" to the left.

IW canopy flaps are a challenge to wheel carriers.
