Yes, but the wheel is taller therefore the boot floor will not lay flat and it snags on the rear plastic trim. To do the job properly you have to buy polystyrene inserts and a new rear trim.

boot only used to lob my kit bag in every fortnight so not an issue for me :grin: as long as it fits in the tub, good enough

Thanks
