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?

So has anyone had issues with an under the driver seat mount? I know there are a couple companies like Brey Krause universal mount with quick release. This placement seems like it is the most intuitive placement, without obtruding into the passenger area (remember this car is not a hardcore racecar like most on here run). Has anyone used this mount or one similar, and did you have any issues with it?
My main concern, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but there "ARE" safety approved seat sliders right (iDK who sanctions the safety aspect SCCA etc)? and if so, i was concerned that this mount would block access to this slider. Any thoughts? |

Any thoughts? I wanted mine within reach but not directly under my elbow on the trans tunnel. I mounted it on the side of the trans tunnel where I didn't have to worry about breaking my elbow on it in an accident but I can still reach it with all belts attached. I don't think I would be able to reach a bottle in front of my seat with belts attached. |
