don't get me started on HOLES . Anyway , may want to check the plugs where your spare tire is located ( need to remove ) . I found the larger plug to be loose and as a precaution put clear shipping tape over those plugs to keep more secure , plus the clear tape will help to see if plug is loose . If you do so , clean the painted metal surface around the plug(s) so tape sticks better .

I got similar plugs; went to the delearship. They jacked up and found these already installed. The bag is still in my glove box.

look just in front of your rear tire wells... they are usually missing from there..... if not, look for some unplugged holes in the front...

Its kind funny actually cause i went to my mechanic today and when he had my yaris jacked up i had a look underneath and there are SOOO many holes that have some sort of plug in them..... they could literally be for anything but generally by the shape the ones found in gloveboxes go in the holes just in front of the rear tire wells... or vise versa for the front wheel wells.
