/\ My 04' definitely does not look like that in the trunk lol.

I also learned the hard way with no spare tire. Hit a pot hole which blew my Continental tire and then had to wait for the good ol' tow truck to take the car to my local tire store. Definitely stupid that the car doesn't have one. Is there some type of retrofit kit we can buy so we have a spare tire?

I have a 2004 and bought the inflatable spare and placed it in the tub after I moved the battery to the right side. Recently I retrofitted it so that the spare would stay put like the more recent W211 cars.
