How to replace the wheel with the spare one on the Ford KA

Model: Ford Ka MK 1 - Years 1996-2008
Part: Wheel

The following steps will allow us to dismantle and replace the wheel with the spare one of the Ford KA. First of all, let's retrieve the spare wheel and the wheel replacement kit; then we open the rear hatch and unscrew the spare wheel screw, removing it from below, as shown in the video. At this point, we loosen the wheel nuts and attach the jack to lift the car, then remove the wheel; replace it with the spare one (or the spare wheel) and reposition everything in the trunk, making sure to properly secure the wheel (tightening the bolts in a crisscross pattern).
