Thanks for the pics. I'll need to track down the installation ahrdware as well as the tools. Hopefully there's some available around here.

Jack and lug nut wrench on eBay UK but shipping would rule out a sensible purchase https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186258657021

The black plastic part under my spare wheel shouldn't really be there but I was given it for free and it fits so I put it in the car, it purpose is for cars with spacsaver tyres but remove the donut and my tyre sits perfectly on it

I'll probably use some foam blocks or something to achieve the same effect as the large plastic piece if I can't find one.

Wheel fits in without the insert, as I said I only fitted it as I was given it for free

Totally forgot to say thanks about my noise problem, changed the a/c accumulator valve and noise is gone...while I finished the work last week, thanks for the assistance is today's "what I did with my Volvo"

Worked on my partners acura. Changed a caliper and tried to bleed the system. Snapped off a bleeder screw on the front caliper but it was in the locked position. May change the caliper later if i cannot extract the screw.

Used one of those mitivacs to bleed the brakes and it was super easy. Planning on bleeding my brakes in the upcoming weeks.

It' great when you find a simple tool that makes the job so much more simple!

My new trunk struts arrived yesterday. Rockauto had Stabilis on clearance. I'm not sure about getting them installed this weekend as I think it's supposed to snow. I did wake up to some snow today. This after having some really nice sunny and warm weather.
