The Trunk Floor Accessories
Step 01
Push the Booster Pump Motor over the large post of the Fuel Tank Booster Pump, as shown:

Step 02
Fit the pin and post of the Tool Kit to this location on the Trunk Floor, behind the Booster Pump:
Secure the Tool Kit into place from below with one (1) JP screw:
Step 03
Fit the long post of the Spare Wheel Support up through the center of the Trunk Floor and align the screw holes, as shown:

Step 05
Press the Fuel Tank Filler Tube and Cap into the matching hole of the Trunk Floor. At the same time, feed the end of the Breather Tube (arrow below) into the small nearby hole.

I found it just laying on my work surface and it took me a while to figure out what the heck it was. This just press-fits in place, and here it is where it is supposed to be:
Thoughts
Other than losing the wheel off my Jack, this phase went together well. I enjoy all these little details that will hide inside the trunk!
