Demon Tweeks (http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) or Grand Prix Racewear (http://www.gprdirect.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) both have a large selection.

I had my Lifeline extinguishers refilled last year and they were very efficient (http://www.lifeline-fire.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).

Martyn,
A couple of years ago I took a friend to the Classic Meeting at Silverstone, and while looking at a garage full of old F1 cars he commented on a particular JPS Lotus and said 'If drove one of these cars this is the one I would want'.
Wondering what it was about that specific car he liked a I asked 'Why that one, Barry?'
'Because it's got the fire extinguisher between your legs.' He replied.

I understood what he meant ... is this of any help?

Bob.

Hi, I used to mount the extinguisher hehind the drivers seat on the leg of the roll cage in my 4/4 (now owned by John Bevan. Alternatively you can mout them on the floor of the passnegr foot well but it does restrict passenger tap dancing activity!
Kind regards
