I made this one myself. Paid 69 bucks for the extinguisher at a local racing parts store and 25 bucks for a set of five stickers like the one shown from italiancarparts. Guess this is the "poor mans" version of the one offered at rmferrari! Mounted it on the back shelf. | ||

Thanks for all of the help. I ordered a 2.5lb Halon and may just screw it to the cargo shelf in back of the seats ( short screws ) | ||

I just got the following information from Bill Maroun at B-K Auto regarding their TR fire extinguisher mount (someone must have contacted him): "We have now created a part number (R-9510) and they are available through O.G. Racing (800)-934-9112. Suggested retail is $149.95." (Unfortunately, it seems the pricing has the usual "Ferrari" addition.) | ||

Adam, I bought a 5lb unit off Ebay for $55. I have seen various sizes there. Some units are new and some are recharged. Good luck. KH | ||

Adam -- I got my 2.5 lb Halon ext. from OG Racing: http://www.ogracing.com/ogshell/loadpage.pl?255859+catfire.html (via a great special offer that came up on the Rennlist for $75). If you'd like a seat ext. mounting bracket for your TR, try contacting Bill Maroun at: http://www.bkauto.com They don't show any F stuff on their website (yet), but he made a very nice prototype for/with me:  | ||

What does everyone use. I have been hunting for a Halon unit since it is the best since it does not cause damage to the engine, where baked on powder is a nightmare. I found one major supplier of 2.5lb Halon from Amerex for $155 incl shipping. I have also found the Halotron by Amerex that is about the same price, but experts say you need more of it to do the same job. The 5lb unit is $112. Any Thoughts. Adam |
