Hi all, last week I got my hands on a 2014 Borneo connect and I love it. 

What I don't love is the lack of a spare wheel. I've found the kit and the wheel and that's not expensive. What I can't find is an instruction or estimated cost for the fitting of the spare wheel system. Has anyone sorted this before themselves?

    Just uploaded the parts diagrams which might help with figuring out how it goes together

    Not sure if this is helpful but I figured out a much simpler to my lack of spare wheel on my tourneo connect:

    Buy a ford space saver spare (with correct 5 x 108pcd) along with ford Jack & wheel brace (ebay about £30)

    Get a M8 x 100mm screw & locknut plus 2 large washers, install into the slotted hole in the well with thread downwards. No need to jack up vehicle, plenty of room to crawl underneath

    Get a 100mm laser cut disc 6mm thick and a 7 lobe M8 female knob (£4 & £3 off ebay)

    Put the spare wheel. inside facing down, centrally over the m8 threaded screw (I used a jack to hold it up)

    Put the disc and lobed knob onto the threaded screw & tighten up hand tight to hold the spare up

    Done! Admittedly you will get your trousers dirty when you want to release the  spare BUT you will get home
