Actually it doesn't begin - literally only one piece of trim gets removed from the truck. It's basically 16 minutes of info most of us already know and a roadmap of what they plan to do next week.

At about the 6 minute mark of that video, what is the divider apparatus in the spare tire well? I've never seen it in other videos.

That is what comes standard if you don't order the full sized spare. The center of the divider is designed to hold a can of fix a flat.

Required by law, too. The compartment is large enough for a human, so they need to either include an emergency release button (like in the frunk) or a divider that prevents a human from fitting with the lid closed. Divider is cheaper!
