What is the best place to mount a quick release fire extinguisher? I has seen under seat mounts, Roll Cage mounts, and flat mounts. The rear drive shaft tunnel would be good, but i doubt it would be easily reachable when harnessed in with a helmet on. The under seat makes since...What are you guys doing?

Within easy reach of the driver should there be a fire. In reality though, you most likely have to pull over and stop to put out the fire. If the car's on fire, I'd haul my ass out first before reaching for the extinguisher. A lot of guys go for the trackday look and put it on the roll bar but how can you reach that? I mount mine on the floor infront of the drivers seat. All I do is loosen my harness a bit lean over and hit the quick release.
