Fire extinguisher in glove box
Hello all,
I need help tracking down a post I saw a while back. There was a member who installed a fire extinguisher in his glovebox. I have searched for the last hour and just can't find it. Anyone have that picture? Or maybe have better searching techniques than me :uh: Thanks guys! |
Are you sure it was the glove box? I can't imagine a fire extinguisher of the size to be able to fit into the glove box being able to do anything to an engine fire.

If I ever find that picture I will throw it out here. I have 4 fd's and 3 of them have beat glove boxes. 2 of them I was able to rig shut. This other one is just a complete mess though. thx guys |
I would not mount even the smallest of extinguishers inside the glovebox. They break enough as it is. I can't imagine putting that much weight inside one.

Anything less then 5 pounds is ponitless other then some ricer points . On another note see if you can find a Halon one, the dry chem leave a huge mess.

Looks like he took out the glove box all together. Those small ones are worthless and wouldn't put out a bbq grill fire in my opinion. I carry two 5lb ones in my car.
