Boot tools - what is meant to fit here?
 
I noticed there's a big gap for a boomerang sized thing under the boot floor. Can't seem to find if anything is actually meant to be here or not...

It's the space which curves around parts 5 and 3

Tow bar.

moltuae 21st July 2015 01:07 PM

That'll be for De Niro's spare gun and ammo.

Dezzy 21st July 2015 01:53 PM

+ 1 for towbar

banana's fit in there too

Correct guess - for the Australian market. +++

Please can anyone say if this is a tool for the A8 D3?
Looks like an emergency winding tool for EPB or seat?
Maybe it is for my old Passat.
Thanks.

Is it an emergency sunroof winder?

HPsauce 24th July 2015 09:31 PM

Which lives on the inside of fusebox cover panel IIRC.

snapdragon 25th July 2015 02:52 PM

Thanks for the replies. I haven't had a sunroof on any car for 10 years but that doesn't mean to say it isn't that.
You don't all have this in your boot toolset then?

HPsauce 25th July 2015 03:02 PM

That item doesn't live in the boot. On the back of the fusebox cover inside the car I think.

Never seen that tool.... Its not for EPB or sunroof..... I would suggest its not original kit...

snapdragon 26th July 2015 09:25 AM

Cheers fellar, I'll bin it. I found it in the boot ~3 years ago and assumed it had fallen out of the toolbox but couldn't find where it fitted in.

certainly does on mine ! nice clip to fit it !
what is it for ?
maybe it IS for the sunroof and they fit one automatically , sun roof or not

HPsauce 26th July 2015 11:28 AM

It's a different shape though, so probably not from an '8.

moltuae 26th July 2015 12:22 PM

Probably fell out of an IKEA flatpack. :D

My sunroof winder lives in the roof behind the interior light / sunroof control cover. Maybe a PF FL difference?
