13.4 TRUNK
13.4.1 Trunk, Description
The trunk houses the spare wheel, the battery, an electrical carrier containing electrical fuses, relays and modules and
a compact disc auto-changer attached to body bracketry. The trunk is fitted with push-fit, velour finish, liners (1 Fig. 1) to the sides and front inner panel; the trunk floor is covered with carpet attached to a removable floor board (2 Fig. 1) and a battery cover (3 Fig. I), one covering the spare wheel and wheel changing equipment, the other covering the
battery and electrical carrier.
The floor board rests on the spare wheel, the front and rear edges
of the floor board locating in blocks on the fuel tank
backboard and on the rear of the body. The blocks accommodate the two possible height settings caused by the differ- ence in thickness between the space saver and full sized spare wheels.
A tread plate (4 Fig. 1) is attached to the trunk sill and a liner is fitted to the rear of the trunk below the sill. Interior trim finisher panels are fitted to the rear lamp units accessed from the trunk opening.
The trunk lid
(5 Fig. 1) is fitted with a removable moulded liner and two trunk illumination lights; the lid is supported by two gas struts, attached through press-on fittings between the inner wheel arch and trunk hinge (6 Fig. 1). A warning
triangle is attached by a bracket to the trunk lid and retained in the open position by a rubber block (Europe inc UK only).
Trunk locking is based on a central latch and striker, operated electrically through the central locking system
by an ad- jacent actuator or by key in a barrel lock located behind the trunk lid badge.
