Where did you get the extinguisher and mount?

I opened this fully expecting to see one of those ricer APC junk mounted to a pillar or some shit. lol

Yeah you never can be too careful when dealing with modified cars. Never can tell what might happen. Seen way too many badass rides burnt to the ground that could have been just a minor fire if they had access to a decent extinguisher.

looks good there. easy to reach but still out of the way. good job

I got one in mine cuz my car is an electrical Frankenstein (not my doing..previous owners were hacks) so I felt it was definitely something I should have

Those cheapo APC junk wouldnt put out a small wood fire let alone a fire caused by gas or oil. Totally useless and meant for show only.

 

[vermilion]

gotcha. i never used one. although with as much fuel as i have running under my turd i need something. doesnt sound like a bad idea.

 

[chris91]

Yeah definitely stay away from anything APC related. LOL

I am not sure why it isn't a law honestly or at the very least why other people don't do it. In my 18 yrs of driving I have seen 4 car fires that just seemed to happen out of the blue and while those things are small they are still good for small fires or to catch the big ones early. One thing you need to remember in placing it though is that you need to be able to get at it fast, as well as possibly from your drivers seat if you were pinned in the car. Behind your seat or in your trunk is still better then not having one but again you really want it at arms reach for the worst case scenario which of course is why we are carrying them. The best place I found to put it is to mount it to the back of the center console on the tranny hump facing up. The one I found was a perfect height that it didn't stick out too far to be ugly, was still easy to grab and also easy to mount into the consol.
