Default Roadster Trunk Tools?

New to the Forum! First question, I just bought a Black 2006 Roadster and love the car, but can any one tell me what should be in the trunk tool compartment? I have the lug wrench, run flat tire repair but what else should be in there?

Welcome to the forum!
There should be a jack in there. Nothing on the right in both of the cars I bought. It has a first aid kit in Europe I heard.

Cool Re: Roadster Trunk Tools?

Congrats & Welcome to the Forum!!!


Multi-tool, lug wrench, jack and compressor for the tire goo, things you need in your trunk...good tire plug kit, a good analog tire gauge, needle nose pliers, latex gloves, and a good flash light.

I think we all did, unless it's just missing. It came with the car from the factory.

They pop up on ebay often. Key an eye open for one. I actually bought a non crossfire one on e-bay that's much more powerful.

srt-6
There's more zoot in the Crossfire's '40s-streamline styling with special-to-SRT wheels, 18 inches in front, 19 in the rear. The spoke count in the wheels has been upped from seven to 15. Peeking over the rims is the thin trace of the new low-profile Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 multicompound summer rubber (Continental all-season tires are an option). You'll find a jack and a can of tire sealer, but no spare.

I bought my Crossfire used with 7,000 miles on it. The flat fix was gone, but the compressor, jack, lug wrench were there.

I got a compressor with my new 04 coupe and used 05 SRT6.

I also got fix flat but I don't think I'll ever use it. I'm concerned with that stuff rolling around in the tire and not distributing evenly. I've heard that it can throw the balance off and ruin the tire. Granted it will allow you to patch and drive to safety but what then? I find that with the plug kit it will take a little longer and a little more hassle but when you get to the tire shop, they will pull the plug and patch from the inside. I was told that was the only way to maintain the integrity and speed rating of the tire.

Anyone know if there is any truth to this?

Jack and tire seal. I keep a good flashlight in the right side hole. It also fits a fifth of booze if I feel like smuggling one in from Canada.
