Fire extinguisher
Hey,
where do you store the fire extinguisher in your car? Is there a special place/compartment where it can be mounted? Right now the one I have slides freely which drives me nuts when Im driving

They are the cylindrical storage bins for the 3rd row seating. Not very deep though.

I don't carry one. Completely pointless I reckon but lots of people do.

People mistakenly believe they can extinguish a car fire with one.
The primary purpose is to put you or your passengers out!
You might be lucky if you catch a car fire early enough but enough be careful opening a bonnet.Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Understood. Have used extinguishers on OP's cars in the past. Bonnet pulled to first position and squirted into the gap. Mostly worked so far if I remember although Fire Service has never been far behind.

Thanks guys.
Regardless of the sense of carrying one and being able to actually put the fire out it is mandatry to have one here where I live.
