Fire Extinguishers

[monsterenergy]

Anyone got a fire extinguisher fitted in their Scoob?

I'm gonna get one soon and wondered where folk had them mounted. Seen a photo of one today which was mounted in the passenger foot well to the left of the centre console but don't want to lose passenger leg room.

I'm thinking a nice mount in the boot of the hatch could look cool.

Anyone got any examples?

A lot of people mount them in front of the passenger seat on a bracket, but not sure how that would go in a Hatch..........

Depends on the size

I have a small extinguisher tucked in under the pax seat. Nothing makes you buy one like having your PS hose burst onto your turbo, uppipe and headers!

Most mount it on to the passenger seat front bolts via a bar or bracket.

Not much point of putting it in the boot if you need it in a hurry!!

This is what I have fitted :

What's the screw/ bolt centres for fixing. Might replace the extinguisher with 2ltr IRN BRU

I personally would fit it in car if flames or coming from front its time wasted running to back mate !

Thanks for the input and Good point regarding having it easily accessible.

I'll look and see about mounting onto the seat runners at passenger seat of it's not too obstructive.

I see Clark Motorsport do a range of extinguishers so will try and pay them a visit I think.

You could plumb in a racing one with the pipework from the boot to either the passenger compartment or the engine bay (or both) with an operating switch by the driver's position.
