:lol: Like it. :D

Got two extinguishers, one for the wall in case and one for the car. Thinking about just mounting it in straight on the tunnel between the seats, but not sure about having them in the sun at shows. :-k

Suppose I could go just under the front of the drivers seat. :read2:

I've always mounted the extinguisher between the seats since my first car in the '70s. I like to be able to get to it fast if I need it, and I did need it once when my daily caught fire.

This started as a small fire I could have easily dealt with had someone not used the extinguisher and failed to replace it. I could only stand by and watch it burn to the ground by the time the fire brigade turned up.

Blue can be quiet hard on company vehicles.

Good call on the Fire Extinguisher, though...

Yes, I reckon it’s worth it with my well documented luck. :roll: :thumbright:

I’ll keep the fire stick, but much happier with the extinguisher, maybe I’ll mount it under the bonnet somewhere just in case.

I would want it readily accessible - you don't want to go popping the Hood with a fire on the go and not have an extinguisher in your hand.... and the fire might not be under the Hood!

No, I meant I’ll mount the extinguisher in the car and the fire stick I might chuck under the hood somewhere in case.

Well, in a moment of a few too many beers, I clearly ordered a couple of those. No recollection of doing it, but they have arrived in the post… :roll: :D :Absynth:

Only problem now is, how to get the painted on modern instructions off the extinguishers… :-k :roll:
