That hubcap thing is really smart. Almost like those tool kits only better for camping.

I always buy the biggest, longest, heaviest-duty jumper cables I can find, because I've fooled with short crappy ones and it just isn't worth it.
I've found that the package fits quite nicely into the hollow spot of the spare tire rim. It fits under the spare cover in the back of the '73 (a first aid kit is stashed on the other side of the tire) and also fits in the cabinet tire storage spot in the '78 Westy.
