In car fire extingushers
« on: 04 December 2010, 13:23 »
I quite fancy one of these in my car for safety and also for cosmetic but has anyone got one of these? Is there anywhere decent to fit it to in the inside of the golf? Any ideas?

I got a small one in my boot, right hand side, tucked in "behind the wheel" so to speak.

I think its a must for a car! Especially if you have tinkered with wiring, turbo's, new engine's, etc.

Mine cost less than £10 I think. I got mine from Trago Mills. I do remember Tesco were selling them very cheap too! Not sure if they still sell them...

put one on the c piller or on the roof in the middle of the car at the back, if that makes sence so when you open the boot its there as you want it on show. If not boot. :-)
