The storage cut-outs in the spare tire storage area seem (in some cases) to have cut outs for particular items to go there.

Does anyone have the list of shaped objects it is designed to fit?

One is definitely for the gas funnel.

I don't believe they are shaped to fit any specific items. It's there mainly to prevent what you put in them from sliding around and making noise.

The funnel fits in the back corner (upper left in pic). I think a Tow Eye will fit in that corner, to the right of the funnel). I have a full size spare (no tow eye); I keep my Trailer Hitch Pin in there. Besides that... I never found any accessories specifically designed for the space. But you can definately store a bunch of stuff in there... I picked the Fantik Tire-Inflator and Jump Starter partly because they fit in there nicely. On the left, in the case, is a 1/2 inch Torque Wrench; The white thing sticking in the round cutout is a non-mar Lug Socket.

With all these 3D surfaces, channel cut-outs, and shapes, it sure looks like it's designed for specific objects to me.

I picked up that Fanttik tire pump and it's really nice. Has a sturdy, well-made feel to it. Hopefully it holds up.

The only factory kit you might get are a fuel funnel, a tow eye and a security lug nut socket. The upper left cutouts are designed obviously but not specifically for those items. The rest is imagination. The official Ford accessories rotate so frequently it's hard to guess if there ever was some official first aid or roadside kit that would neatly fit another of those cutouts. Like this item:

Its kind of like the maverick bed, DIY. you can put anything that fits in those spots, ford doesn't really have any specific items listed to put there. its just storage to use as you please.
