In the US they’re standard and the D3 had them as well. In Europe they’re part of the ‘Luggage Compartment Package’ which includes the bag hooks, umbrella holder, cargo net and 12v socket

Plugging a tire today and hiding from the tire safety police...





Also heads up, these cheap pucks from Amazon don't last forever. Probably only 2-3 years tops.

Just use regular hockey pucks, run a saw blade through them as neede to fit your pinch welds. I have been using them for decades!

Default Powerflex

I bought some from powerflex. Not used them yet. PF3-1664. Have been using a deep well socket... Hockey puck? Probably would work very well. Must be from up north?

I just now realized what I was looking at- a car jack. That's what the hockey puck was for.
