SWB fire extinguisher mount

[Rich Lambert]

After reading the fire extinguisher thread, I decided better safe than sorry. I picked up a 2.5lb Halon bottle and after spending an hour trying to figure out where to put it, I came up with this mounting solution. It utilizes the stock inboard seatbelt mounting locations. I cut and bent a couple 1"x1/8"x4" metal pieces, bolted them to the car using the seatbelt holes, and bolted the extinguisher bracket to those. It's in easy reach when harnessed in, fairly out of the way, and I didn't put any new holes in the car. No one will ever sit in the back seats, so that's not an issue.





Not a bad way to spend a Saturday morning.

I mounted mine directly to the tunnel cover. Just used sheet metal screws.
