Default Spare Tire Hold Down Bolt

The F-Type parts catalog shows two different spare tire bolts, one for the coupe and the other for the convertible - but not the length. Which one does this fit, coupe or convertible?



Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a coupe and I just measured the full length of mine at 8" (not bragging at all!).
The one in your pic is 11" so it must be the 'vert version.

No trouble at all, my spare and the tie down rod both live out of the car in the garage so it took all of 60 seconds to grab it and measure it.

It's only a space saver, a skinny orange monstrosity limited to 50 mph, but it saved my **** one day even though it was in the garage!

50 miles Per Hour? What if I wasn't planning on staying out for a whole hour?
