Passenger Seat Fire Extinguisher Mount Bracket

Not fancy but it does the job. This is my simple mounting frame to fix a small extinguisher under the passenger seat.

Bunnings shopping list: 100mmx75mmx20mmx4mm brackets, a length of 25mmx3mm aluminium flat bar and some 15mm and 25mm M8 bolts. I Tek screwed the extinguisher frame to the flat aluminium bar and replaced the Ineos 15mm bolts with 25mm ones putting a few flat washers under each bracket to lift it above the plastic trim in front of the seat support, so it didn’t dig in. Pictures tell it all.











Also noting @MrMike 's comment in the Fire extinguisher mounting thread about using garden sprayer with water and detergent to extinguish spinifex fires, (https://www.theineosforum.com/threads/fire-extinguisher-mounts.12412372/post-1333191552), I saw the following while at Bunnings. I like the fact the tank and wand are metal so will grab one soon. (.https://www.bunnings.com.au/silvan-...UrY-DDY-VX1-9Y5oYexoC3vcQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds)

Hi Steve

That bracket looks good
So does the sprayer, you'll just need to modify the nozzle for greater output which should be relatively easy

Great work, big cost saving.

They are the bolts I used to secure my fridge platform over the passenger's seat. I used the brackets from the JOOCLA Mounted Ensuite, which were not suitable for the Rhino Rack Pioneer platform. The JOOCLA brackets were a perfect fit for the fridge platform! Exactly the right length with the correct size bolt holes.
