I’ve only seen the scissor-jack in the boot for the first time recently ... frankly the idea of jacking the painted undersides of our car using that metal Thing horrifies me slightly, I hope we never get a flat while on the move!
But it did occur to me, maybe I need to get one of those rubber blocks with a slit in the top of it, so I can place it where the scissor-jack is supposed to go when jacking-up the car (either using the trolley-jack or a hoist). At the moment I’m putting a rubber block behind that thin metal seam which the scissor-jack straddles, but I’m thinking it might be better if I get those slotted rubber blocks to jack the VF on.
All the slotted hockey-puck thingies on eBay only have a depth of 15mm for the slot in the top of them, anyone know whether that’s deep enough for a VF? [and yes I’m aware I could just go measure it ]
