Which Extinguisher? And where to mount it?

[kmpowell]

I guess this thread is for all T350 owners, but any general opinions and advice wil be much appreciated. :)

Basically i want to buy a small fire extinguisher for my T350T, but I have no idea which are best? and where best to mount it for quick access?

Any shop suggestions, prices and pics of installs will be gratefully recieved.

TIA

AFFF is the best sort, bigger is better (2L minimum), ideally put it somewhere that you can reach it from the driver's seat and make sure it is absolutely secure or it can become a lethal projectile in an accident. My favorite place for it is sideways under the driver's knees, bolted through the floor.

Mine is in the 'footwell' behind the drivers seat - chances are you'll want to be out of the car when you use it, and I can be out, flip the seat and have it in hand in a couple of seconds!

I was going to get one too but I thought
that if the car is going to go on fire it
will probably be under the bonnet and by the time
I get out go to the boot get my socket set out
find a 13mm socket and the small extention open
the service bonnet undo the four nuts go back to
the boot and get my long thin screwdriver to unpop
the two clips at the top of the bonnet flag a car
down to get someone to help me lift the bonnet off
it didn't seem worth it
