Anybody use the Rennline seat mount? Not sure where I want to put a fire extinguisher, but this looks like a neat solution without making holes. Any pics of other mounting places appreciated. On my last 914 I just kept it behind my seat!

I read differing opinions/reviews on the Element. What made me decide against it was looking at a car that had a fire and hearing that the Element the previous owner had used to try to put out the fire didn't make a dent in the flames. They used two of them but still ended up losing the fight. It is currently in new hands and undergoing a restoration. I ended up with Ben's FE mount (I actually ended up buying three of them) and a 5lb purple K FE. Ben's mount accommodated the larger FE. I'm not sure 2.5lbs is enough to put out a fire on the verge of becoming fully involved. 5lbs might not do it either, but it gives me a better chance. The heavier FE does cause the mount to "bounce" a bit when driving, but not too much. It doesn't impede on the passenger's leg room. Just a great and economical solution. I hope he decides to make more. Obviously the best strategy is prevention, but you still have to be prepared.
