Amber defis
Lowering springs
Rear camber bolts with full geo setup (finally)
Piaa horns
Matt wrap centre console pieces with red hazard switch
2 piece front brake disks
Goodridge braided hoses to replace hel ones
RCM rad cover
Silicone hoses
New door speakers
Fit fire extinguisher
Sti pedal set
Zunsport grill

Big project is to strip the underside, address any surface rust, underseal and powder coat the bits and bobs while they're off the car.

Think I've a few other bits and bobs around the place that have been gathering, just need to get the finger out and start fitting

Rob where are ya fitting the fire extinguisher hav one myself was thinking of glovebox

 

[eliroche]

I stuck my fire extinguisher in the boot, on the right hand side as you look in on the small shelf like part, grand spot, doesn't get in the way.

Also I feel bad looking at all the plans and bits you all have!!! Gonna have to do something myself!!

Really don't know where to put it to be honest, I wanted somewhere accessible like the passenger side footwell just in case. But then, I don't want to drill mounting holes in the chassis either so I've no idea where to put it yet. May look into making a mounting plate using existing holes or something like that. Where were you thinking yourself?

What's the best type for a car co2, foam ??

 

[keith dublin]

What Type of Fire Extinguisher is Best-Suited for a Car?
Your vehicle presents several different fire hazards: oil, gas, electrical wires and upholstery. Your car fire extinguisher must be able to handle every possible mishap.

Dry powder fire extinguishers are the best choice for a vehicle or boat. The fire repellent inside is rated for use on any A, B and C or E class of fire (depending on your national fire classifications). This means that a dry powder car fire extinguisher will fight fuel and electrical related fires, as well as common organic combustibles such as upholstery, paper, cloth and wood products that are integral to your vehicle.

General Properties of a Quality Car Fire Extinguisher
Shopping for a fire extinguisher to store in your vehicle for safety purposes can be overwhelming. Here are some essential features to look for:

Light weight - under 2 lb is ideal
Compact shape – an elongated, cylinder shape is practical
Durable body – preferably aluminum as that material is corrosion-free and light
Ready filled – available for immediate use
Easily serviced – can be filled and serviced by a regular fire services company
Storage clip or mount included – an under-seat or trunk mount is convenient, and some have useful clips that hook unto other places in the vehicle
Controlled discharge – should have a durable and controlled trigger
Good warranty – to ensure you are protected from faulty manufacturing
Certified to Local Fire Standards - always buy a fire extinguisher that has been labeled with local certification.

The powder one is what I got from Eoin earlier last year, good job.

Looks tidy Eli .. I don't have any boot lining in the car so can't do that way

I suppose Velcro might be an option but will have to check it out, see if it can hold the extinguisher without coming loose.

Below in the red circle is where i was thinking of trying to install, not too intrusive but at hand should something happen

I seen a project thread where a lad made a bracket for the fire extinguisher to bolt into the 2 front bolts on the passenger seat so just sits in front of the base of the seat but tight to it.

Out of the way but easily accessible .

I put mine in the boot on the left
