I understand that the only option available for the Classic model is heated seats, but is it possible to have a spare tire?

It's possible to purchase the donut sized spare, but then you've got to put it somewhere.
Believe you can order from the dealer a retrofit kit for the drop-down spare tire carrier under the boot.
I remember seeing a lengthy parts list for this, but can't find the thread.
Wouldn't mind adding this to my Classic for extra peace of mind, depending on the cost for the retrofit kit.
I bought a new set of 16" X-lites w/ run-flats off ebay for summer use, but would still prefer a spare for winter.
