A different twist on 550 Fire Extinguisher placement

Some of the fellas on the 360-430 forum were discussing Fire Extinguisher placement their cars.
Thought I'd share how I did mine in my 550. It is attached to the seat hardware so it moves with the seat, is tucked away nicely, yet functions as a Grab and Go unit in the event of an emergency.

There are actually 3 pieces to the set up.
The Brey Krause Bracket R-9540 on their website BKAuto.com
The Brey Krause Extinguisher Mount R-9520. They offer a 90 mm size as well. One would have to confirm if that is for a 5lb. bottle.
The 2.5lb Halon Extinguisher is from Safecraft Motorsports. They do have 5lb units as well. They Offer Black, White Red, etc.
There is a little trick to make the 2.5lb extinguisher fit that bracket in picture #1. The Safecraft bottle is technically a couple of mm. shy of fitting securely in the bracket. If you enlarge the photo, you will see a piece of 1/2" magnetic tape between the aluminum bracket and the bottle which can be purchased at any hardware store in a roll. It provides just the right thickness to allow the bottle to fit nice and snug up once the bracket is tightened up with the allen wrench. I put a toothpick in between the bracket closure to spread the ring just enough to allow me to position the bottle and then pulled the toothpick and tightened up allen head screw. Ultimately, I'd like to have someone CNC a prancing horse where the Brey Krause sticker is and I have a Chrome Prancing Horse decal which I've debated putting on the bottle. It might compliment the anodized bracket and billet aluminum trigger on the bottle. I'm funny about getting too crazy with stuff like that but we'll see. I usually defer to "what would Ferrari do in this application"? What are your thoughts?
Here is a photo of a different Billet Bracket I did on my Gallardo back in 2004. Mounted it to the Child Chair Restraint bolt on the rear firewall just above the luggage shelf. Trying to figure out a way to use that same Black Extinguisher and Bracket in my 2010 QP GTS (the Lamborghini Script is long gone now).
Haven't quite figured that one out yet. May go in the trunk...... We'll see.

That’s really great info. It’s been a while since I looked at the current technologies and extinguisher offerings in the market place, but the Novec 1230 which I see is a 3M material appears to be the ultimate answer. 3M has a very impressive video demonstrating the unique characteristics of how it performs. I see there are a number of Competition retailers that offer various sized hand held units as well. Thanks for the info. Mush appreciated!
