Try OG Racing www.ogracing.com or Northstar Motorsports http://www.northstarmotorsports.com/

If you're looking for more of a permanently-installed fire system, Stable Energies http://www.stable-energies.com/ is also worth a browse.

I've purchased equipment and safety gear online from all 3 with good results. YMMV of course.

Cheers,

I used a halon extinguisher and mounted the bracket to my roll bar with with SS hose clamps. I used some thick rubber ( a modified fernco fitting) to use underneath the clamps to guard against scratching.

I bought a 3.5lb halon fire extinguisher for about 20 of your dollars. It came with a mount that can easily be mounted to bar or panels. It's quit evident how to mount when you see it.

To get the great price I called a small company that sells to restaurants,garages,schools.... and asked for halon. They said they don't make them anymore but had a few used. I drove down and picked best looking one. No scratches but needed cleaning.

I now have one in my car,garage,kitchen and at work. For that price can't go wrong.

Joseph,

That wae an AMAZING BARGAIN you got! I've never even heard of used extinguishers, except for the collectible chrome/brass soda acid models that are considered antiques by fanciers!

Fortunately for me, I got a couple of 5 lb Halon 1211 bottles on sale for around $100 ea. about 15 years ago from Karousel Racing, and have never had to use either one, yet!
