Tire Iron and Hold Down Screw

I have kept this with the spare tire in the back. It just kinda bounces around on top of the inside of the spare. Where should this go? Like fresh from the factory, in the rear bins? I never found the answer anywhere. Sorry if my searching is terrible. Thanks!

You would think so, I looked around twice in there since and it does't look like it. The driver handbook mentions stowing the jack and the wheel blocks. It makes no mention of the tire iron. It makes the assumtion that you have found the iron/screw already and plan to use the screw for the regular sized tire.

Was there really factory wheel blocks? I would like to have a set.

here is a pic of the JDM tool kit, in the US we just get the tire iron, wheel chocks and the bolt for the tire
but it goes in that bag, and then the bag stows somewhere, lol

This is pretty cool stuff. 😆 I will start to build the kit so it looks like yours. Some of this stuff, I have laying around. Maybe the wrenchs and plyers. I have and extra bag if anyone is looking for a trade.
