I did that mistake when I did my subie mod - forgot about the fit for the
spare.  Now my spare in in the back until I get ambitious enough to reroute
one of my cooling hoses.  Actually isnt working out to bad that way though.
Now my spare is always checked and the time I had to use it, it was a lot
easier to get it out.
