Fire Extinguisher Mounting

[shelbyman]

Ok I'm bumping this post for an update. I tried for a good while to see if the H3R seat mount would work on my standard 2015 bucket seats that I replaced the Recaros with. Well there is no way I could see to mount the bracket to the seat. :headbonk: Looked carefully underneath the seat and came up with nothing really workable. Not sure how it would be with the Recaros as I didn't look at them. Now I could have tried to mount the bracket to the floor but that would have involved cutting the plastic seat frame trim and I didn't want to do that. :shrug: So I've ordered the Speedtactics simple under the seat frame bracket mount and it should be a very simple install. I'll update later.

Ok got the extinguisher installed with the parts listed above. It went fairly well. I had to bend the floor mount bracket a bit to get it to contour a bit more to the floor on the passenger side. It was pretty easy to do with my hands and a vise. There is plenty of room for the seat to move back and forth and I don't think it would interfere with the passengers feet...it didn't with mine when I sat in the seat. I was able lean over and pull the mounting pin to get the extinguisher out from the drivers seat so that was nice as well. I haven't driven the car to see if there is any kind of vibration or ratting of the extinguisher when moving in the car. Weather here has been rainy. Will have to report back on that at a later date. I took pics but they came out so dark I will wait to post better ones when I have it outside. So far so good.:clap2:

May be able to ping the guys and get additional ideas from here

A mate of mine works for Ford here in Australia. He grabbed the CAD drawings or whatever and just folded some flat sheet so it sits under the front seat mount holes. Painted it black and mounted extinguisher to the bracket.
Simple and cheap.
I'd post some pics but I'm currently away from the car for Xmas..

Does anyone make a mount for under the (front) driver or passenger seat?
