Fire Extinguisher Mount

I have the factory seats in my 86 911. The driver seat has power adjustments and a lever for front/back movement. The passenger seat isn't power and just has the slider.

I'd like to install a fire extinguisher on the passenger seat after watching a video of someone's car burn up.

If anyone has installed one, what setup did you use and are you happy with it?

I just installed the Rennline mount on the passenger side. Very easy install that literally took minutes once the seat was out. Good opportunity to lube/clean the slider mech and reasemble with new hardware if you are so inclined.

I also have the Rennline Mount attached to my 930 manual passenger seat. Accepts multiple bottle brackets and allows full front to back adjustment of seat.

Just saw this posted on Rennlist (no affiliation) Rennline Universal Extinguisher Mount (new) - Rennlist Discussion Forums

You can buy a new FE03 for manual seats for $125 but this (more expensive) universal version might allow transfer if you ever switch cars. Not sure if it fits or is what you are looking for. GL.

I installed the Rennline FE03 in both the 88 and the 70. Modified it for the 70. Really like it.
Shorty wife says legs hit the extinguisher. Got her a pillow. Not going to be without fire protection, period.

I think I will definitely buy the rennline mount. I've been a little nervous ever since I saw the video. It wasn't a 911, but the person had put several years into restoring a truck and it burned up right in front of him.

Rennline may still be doing the 10% black friday discount. I got their mount also. Just waiting for arrival. One of those costs that are essential just in case...
