I am trying to locate the spare tire cover / particleboard plate for a 2001 Tiburon. To find the part, I need to know what the piece is actually called. Any ideas? Thank you, Chris

pul up the rug in the trunk, there is a particleboard cover, under that is your spare.

The little horse shoe-looking looking thing is actually supposed to be a cross-section of a tire. That would be your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) trying to tell you to check the pressure in your tires because it has determined that one or more of them are low.

This is covered in the Owner's Manual.
If you don't have an Owner's Manual for your Hyundai, you can get one HERE

in my burb, the jack and all the components are in a compartment located between the 3rd row seat cupholder and the mesh/container compartment. it's kind of deep and it has a small indednt for a handle, lift that and it should pop right out, then you can undo the nut to release the jack and wheel chokes. then follow konkomados's steps to lower your spare at the back

Typically all Suburban spare tires are mounted on an under-car carrier. This carrier is usually accessed through a covered key way at the rear bumper near the license plate step. The jack that comes with the Suburban also has a crank rod that is used to raise and lower the jack. The other end of the rod is designed to access the key way to crank the spare tire lift up or down. Cranking the lift in a counterclockwise rotation will lower the spare tire.

I hope this helps:)

These are done with a series of extentions that are part of the jack and "spare tire kit". It goes through the rear bumper and is lowered and raised by turning these poles or extentions. This more than likely has a little cover over the hole nearest the license plate I believe. Let me know if you need anything else.

the montero spare cover is a two pc cover the keepers go into the pc that is mounted under the tire,before you try to put the cover on look at the other pc and see where the slots are,to make it easier to install get the tire and the cover soaked with water so it can slide easier,put the retainers into the slots and turn 90 degrees-good luck

check in trunk if its not ther its mostly where most suvs have it under the trunk but i mena by the outside where the exhaust is if not there ur missing it

The proper tire size should be on a sticker located on your door sill. When you open your drivers door look along the sill and pillar, look on the door itself also. There should be a sticker that says something along the lines of 205/60/R15 and will also tell you how many pounds to inflate your tires to. If you have an owners manual that will also tell you. Hope this helps and please do not forget to rate me.

There is a cover in the back by the licence plate, open it and put your truck key in the slot, then put the stright pieces of steal that came in the kit( side of bed) together, and you will need to crank the spare wheel down. Hope this helps

if the vehicles spare is located under the rear cargo area then there may be a hole located in the rear bumper next to the license plate. if the vehicle is equipped like that then there should be a few straight bars that attach together to form a long bar. this bar is then inserted into this hole and mated with a joint witch is connected to a pully system that raises and lowers the tire. if this didnt make any sense or if it is totally wrong then you could consult the owners manual. all of the necessary procedures are in that book.
