I have been considering installing a small fire extinguisher inside my car for the longest time. I know the chances of my car catching fire is very slim, so its mainly just a precautionary measure. I would hate to just stand there helpless, as I watch my beloved car just burn to the ground. So the main purpose of this post is get ideas from other peoples set ups and their reviews of them.

As of right now I am aiming to have my extinguisher strapped to my rollbar since I didn't want to take away from my passenger foot space nor mine. I have been eyeing the Safecraft http://www.lpiracing.com/Safecraft-PB2BW-Fire-Extinguisher-2-50-Lb-Black-Wrinkle-2167p186779.htm but they are a bit of the pricey side. Either way I would like to see peoples setups, thanks.

I plan to tuck the lines a bit better, but:

In the e30, I have a 2# bottle secured in a cubby in the trunk.

I've got a small halon bottle and Brey Krause seat bracket. This is an older image, but it gets the idea across.

It's a pretty decent setup. The bottle is easy to get to and to remove. I'm considering updating the bracket to a rollbar install. My daughter is getting big enough that she's having problems stepping over the bottle. Can't have that.

I did a whole post about it (http://revlimiter.net/blog/2011/07/fire-extinguisher-and-seat-bracket/) if you want to read.

I was recently thinking about this also, considering the new fuel lines I made. They're one piece steel but still have 2 connections that rely purely on my tube flaring skills. I'm leaning toward the passenger footwell route but seeing a more setups is always a good idea.
