Not sure this is of use to you; limited visibility and it's seen better days, but thought I'd post it just in case...

Thanks! but i see what you mean, not very clear :(

theres pics in the Haynes manual but cant make them out either, and i didnt strip my car (previous owner did) so its new to me lol

the holes on the underside of the car where the mount should bolt to, looks miles of to be lining up with the bracket bolts and theres no thread to screw the bolts in either :scratch

yes, right hand side of the spare wheel well. but holes in the bracket dont line up with any of the holes on the chassis leg, none of the holes are threaded either..
