Cheap Fire Extinguisher Mount

I have never like driving a 50 something year old car or truck with out having an extinguisher. So today I went to mount one in my Panel.

I used a bicycle water bottle holder, and it worked PERFECTLY!!

PICS:

Re: Cheap Fire Extinguisher Mount

If I remember right a small fire ex. like that one will only give you 8 seconds or less of spray.
Better than nothing but you have to aim it right.
Nice mounting idea.
