Default Cosworth owners - show your fire extinguishers!

Not the most exciting thread i know.. But i want to fit a fire extinguisher (Probably a 1kg) and I'm wondering where the best looking location is. Thinking either passenger side of tunnel or down at the passenger floor tucked up by the seat.

Pics please for some inspiration

Ram it may not be the greatest help but some of the cars at work (Porsches) have a bracket which bolts to the seat runners (on passengers side) so sits it just infront of the seat and the extinguisher clips in...saves drilling holes etc

Sorry I haven't any pics

No pic of it, but I have one on the sill in the rear o/s footwell. The least used seat in the car, and not too far away in case it's needed.

That's neat, think there's a gap in the market for those, no drilling tunnels or the car and simply bolting it to the sub frame mounts.

Or can you buy them already? 😖
