The carpet has a grommet that matches the hole

Spare tire hold down. You can put a spare tire there and secure it with the same threaded thing you use in the front trunk ...

Thanks SirAndy!

Why? To carry 2 spares?

Will the roof panel fit over the rear spare?

Was this 75-76 only or all years?

- To move the spare to the rear if you need more space in the front
- Yes, you could carry 2 spares that way too
- Yes, the roof still fits unless you have a very wide rim and tire. I have a full size 7" rim with a 225/50 tire and the roof still fits, albeit barely.
- All years
