is this lightweight, two piece, bolt-in, fire extinguisher mount that's super easy to use when you've gotta get the white stuff (or clear if you're using Halon) on the red stuff!!

Just pull the handle and voila ... one extinguisher ready for use! No fumbling, cussing, sweating bullets while trying to get that sucker free.

I bolted the extinguisher brace to the retaining bracket and then the entire mount assembly to the back panel. This mount lends itself to being placed anywhere there's a flat surface ... on the floor behind the seat, horizontal under the front seat bracket, you pick. And don't forget the shop, kitchen, and perhaps the bathroom (time to cut back on the jalapenos if you need a fire extinguisher in the bathroom).

The hardest part was figuring out where to locate it so I could get easy access to the handle. Literally ... it took longer to find a good location than it did to mark and drill holes, and then bolt the extinguisher to the mount.
