Not directly attached anywhere. Ours sits under the bed. A black plastic pocket with 3 items. The black jack which has a fold out pin to fit the jacking points, an L-shaped wheel-nut wrench and a small wire horseshoe shaped puller with two prongs that fit the holes in the edge of the hubcaps. We also have added in there the large spanner that is needed to replace the gas cylinder osg

Ours has always been under the bed. If it's not there you'll just have to look in all the cupboards. Just Kampers sell them for £60. You could also consider a bottle jack. That would be cheaper and avoids putting stress on the jacking points, but you do have to know safe and strong points to place it.

If none onboard I'd go for the one that @Voyager has mentioned via Just Kampers. It'a an original VW Brazil product. They'll sell you a wheel brace too.
