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!

Thanks @DennisV

I like Mr. Brooks summation:

" A good UL rated 2-3LB Halon 1211 extinguisher, is the best thing to protect your tub."

It's also interesting to read the further comments...

"I don't think I'll spend $300 for each of my cars..."

There it is, IN PRINT!

Just begging for Mr. Murphy to kick him in the nuts.

When the car is on fire the cost of the extinguisher is not what is important! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ninja.gif)


Edit: The way the Halon works I believe would allow it to be sprayed on the closed engine cover through the grill and still work fine. It is substantially heavier than air and in stock 4 or 6 form the engine compartment is a well-sealed off box.
Might be a good idea to spray some under the car too...
