Another vote for at the base of the front seat. I have a 20mm wide metal bar that runs between the two seat bolts. Just cut the right length, drilled the holes in the right spots and then mount the extinguisher.

I have a metal bracket which i just bolted to it as well! Only thing that worries me are peoples feet when they get in but most people are careful!

On another note, i know the plastic bracket wont take the strain of the extinguisher so i have removed, like stated above, dont want it to be a projectile
Sorry mate, but you have blue neons under your car....you've already been judged.

the theory behind where putting the extinguisher is to have quick access to it. Having it in the boot??? .... sorry but by the time you get out the car, run around the back, reach in and unclip it from the back seat, you'll need more than 1kg extinguisher to save your car

When im working with a drill rig-the drillers have always said: "if the rig catches on fire-run...very fast...let it burn to the ground--> insurance is your fire extinguisher"....
Probably shouldnt do this with your WRX...but quite funny all the same

(incidently my fire extinguisher is bolted to the floor between my legs and i reckon its a mistake to underestimate china made products..... )
