Fire Extinguisher

[henrym3]

Just fitted this.

I’ve had it in the garage for 6 months or more

[Alan Gunn]

Just seeing if it comes the right way up for me as it is upside down in your posy Henry.

[henrym3]

Maybe that’s the shot I took just after I rolled her It’s the right way up on mine?

[Alan Gunn]

It's strange it shows as upside down as did a pic you put up a few day's ago.
The pic i put up is the correct way well to me it is lol.

[henrym3]

Does seem strange. Anyone else got an upside down pic?

Can any computer buffs explain why it’s ok on some and not on others.

More importantly,
The fitting of the extinguisher is a great idea....
I would possibly put it on the passenger side in-case it breaks loose & rolls under the pedals.

Living nr Birmingham as I do, the essential piece of additional kit in my X5 would possibly be a rounders bat.

In the last month alone, driving thru Birmingham, I've seen one car jacking, a roadside robbery, handbag snatch & some poor sod being roughed up at a cash-point...

Let alone the 3 stabbings locally to Litchfield in the last 30 days in the news...

However, a powder fire extinguisher blasted in the face of an attacker may also be a good self defense tool me thinks.

The reason for fitting under drivers seat is that the passengers seat has the standard fit container for the first aid box.

My partner removed all the 1st aid stuff in her X5 & replaced it with makeup, blusher & other powdery puff crap. I suggested sh add a putty spreader & some Poly-filler.... I got a slap for that one ha ha.

I must say, the baseball bat steering lock in the link above is a fabulous idea - I gonna get one today.
