I confess I don't know the T4 at all well, but by analogy with the T5, it probably has no home in a Trophy. It's very similar in shape to the one supplied from the factory with a T5, which has a natural habitat sitting slightly uncomfortably behind one of the rear wheel arches. On most conversions (including the Trooper) its home is sacrificed in the name of bed frame and/or storage, so it has nowhere to live - destined to lurk wherever it can.

In the Trooper, ours lives in the gas locker, and it seems quite comfortable there.

The T4 one looks a little different, but from memory ours also accommodates the jack, wheel nut socket/driver and wheel trim removal tool.

Roopert, I thought it looked familiar and I think you may have hit the nail on the head.
When converting a previous T5, the installation of the RIB bed meant the jack kit had to be removed from the rear wheel arch.
As you mention, the photo shows just a spanner and screwdriver whereas the full kit has the jack etc.. fitted.

Edit... Leonardo, glad you found the answer up!
