Rear Hatch Fire Extinguisher Mount
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hey guys just a little preview of one of the projects we've been working on :nod:

Attachment 685969

We wanted to create an alternative, less visible mount to compliment our passenger seat extinguisher mount. The mount uses existing studs in the rear hatch and no modifications are required. It's completely bolt on.

Fortunately this mount fits nicely in the rear hatch and is easily accessible in the event of an emergency. Once the retaining pin is removed the extinguisher lifts right off.

Attachment 685970

Below is what the extinguisher will look like when mounted. It's easily removable if extra space is needed in the hatch.*

Keep up the great work guys!!

Bluewind 01-10-13 11:55 PM

Hmm, how much would these be?

HadaVette 01-11-13 01:43 AM

I really like that! Not too far away from where I carry a mostly loose one now.
Is this picking up mounting points from the bose sub unit?
Does it all fit neatly under the cargo cover?
Price and availability?

DougNOS 01-11-13 07:42 AM

I was just in the process of looking for a good mounting point myself.

ZE Power MX6 01-11-13 11:11 AM

Nice, adding this to my list of thing to buy!

The mounting points we used are also used to hold the factory plastics in place. It absolutely fits under the factory cargo cover, with room to spare too :icon_tup:

We are still working on pricing, but we will run a pre-release sale soon. The mount will be available by mid February as long as there are no holdups on production :)

We'll also be offering the mount and quick release as a package or separately for anyone who may have bought our passenger seat mount; it uses the same quick release assembly.

now that looks great!

ObliqueFD 01-12-13 05:59 AM

What a great idea! I'll probably be picking up a couple of these.

gdub29e 01-12-13 07:40 AM

I definitely like the rear mount rather then the seat mount. I will be picking one of these up! Nice work guys :icon_tup:

socks 01-12-13 07:44 AM

i would totally buy one if you made one for the bose.


and by totally buy one, i mean drop what im doing to send you money whether i had it or not totally buy one.

I have a friend who has unfortunately lost 2 cars, and almost a house due to a car fire. Neither were mazdas, but that doesnt really matter when you start modding things.

ksu-chewie 01-12-13 09:07 AM

Can I exchange for my passenger mount?

GoodfellaFD3S 01-12-13 09:13 AM

Looks like Blueberry Farms got a new rear carpet for Christmas, that thing is cleannnn :lol:

I like this solution a lot. Sign the Farrell Brothers Powerlifting Team up for a couple :icon_tup:

stompz 01-12-13 01:01 PM

I think that's a great spot :icon_tup:. I'm a little biased though...:nod:

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Z...6185.JPG?gl=US

Keep up the good work guys! I could use a few more SakeBomb items in my car!

Wompa164 01-13-13 12:08 PM

Subscribed, I'm definitely +1 whenever this is released

We are playing around with a solution for bose system vehicles. There aren't many suitable locations since the Bose system takes up most of the hatch haha. That's unfortunate your friend has lost not just one but two cars to fires... Accidents do happen though. :(

If it's unused we'd be happy to exchange it for you :) Otherwise we will be offering the quick release and mout as a package or separately.

SakeBomb Garage 01-19-13 05:36 PM

The prototype rear hatch mount is complete! A few tweaks are needed then its off to production! Stay tuned for pre-release sale prices. We'll also post pictures with the mounting points exposed.

Sorry for the low quality picture guys

PS

For anyone who didn't already know we also offer a passenger seat extinguisher mount/quick release. We designed the mount as to not interfere with passengers legs or affect the seats range of motion.

It's really only mean for stock seats to my knowledge, lots of racers on here looking for a good alternative :)

automationLED 02-10-13 11:07 PM

Differences in pins?
 
Dan,

What is the difference between the standard detent pin & the quick release pin?

Respectfully,

Charlie

Charlie,
Sorry about that...I thought it was posted in this thread already. Taken from the preview thread...

The mount itself is powder coated satin black and the quick release is anodized black.

The quick release pin upgrade uses a a push button to disengage the ball detent. It's a little cleaner than the pin with the lanyard. It really comes down to personal preference. The lanyard you can just pull out where as the push pin you need to disengage and pull.

This safety mod is a small price to pay compared to the price of a whole new car, and countless hours of labor. We all take pride in the cars we've built or are in the process of building, yet so many of us don't believe a fire can destroy what we've built in minutes.

One of our customers lost his recently finished 02 FD after an engine fire consumed the entire car. He was nice enough to send us before and after pictures. Needless to say he's purchasing both of our mounts to ensure his new FD doesn't suffer the same fate.

Ordered, thanks for making this!

dcchris311 03-16-13 08:59 PM

I'll be getting one soon after seeing that pic!

GoodfellaFD3S 03-20-13 11:12 PM

Every FD owner should have one of these bad boys..... those pictures make me sad as hell :(

TexanRX7 03-21-13 12:42 PM

ohh man. i have to get a extinguisher now. saved the page for the seat mount. might pick one up soon

HadaVette 03-21-13 06:45 PM

Mine is on order!

I got excited about the rear hatch mount, since that is where my extinguisher flops around now, but decided I liked the seat mount version for ease of access once I ordered one and thought about it. Looking forward to this!

luisr 03-21-13 07:41 PM

really cool item.I like the seat set up but I have spirit r seats so I'm glad SBGARAGE came out with this new design.

Thanks for your business! The seat mounts are in stock and ready to ship so no waiting on those. :icon_tup:

The spirit R seat uses bottom mount holes just like our OEM mount so it could fit. I believe we have a spirit R seat laying around somewhere. We'll do a little test fit and get back to you.

Thanks everyone for the continued support and feedback! Without all of you we wouldn't be able to succeed :nod:

We are also running an extinguisher sale. If you use coupon code "firesale" at checkout the extinguisher will come up discounted.

Yes it will as long as you have OEM seats :icon_tup: We made the mount to work on either side of the car.

The "firesale" coupon doesn't seem to be working for me :scratch:

Sorry I got it wrong, didn't realize we had an ! in the code :facepalm3:

The correct code is "FireSale!" It will take $11 off your order (don't ask why $11 lol) :icon_tup:

Thanks,
Dan

caredden 03-23-13 10:01 PM

Dan,

If you guys can confirm that your seat-mounted extinguisher works with RZ or Spirit R seats, I may pick up one of them as well...never be too cautious with an FD :)

I didn't get to test it personally, but from what Heath was telling me the bracket will prohibit the movement of the adjustment lever. I'll confirm with him and let you know for sure. :icon_tup:


One more day left to take advantage of our fire extinguisher and extinguisher mount sale! All mounts/extinguishers are in stock and ready to ship. Spring is here and track season is heating up :devil:

Thanks again to all of our customers who support us, without all of you we wouldn't be here :patriot:


Happy easter!

Wompa164 04-02-13 03:07 PM

Just got mine in the mail, looks like a very trick piece! Thank you so much SBG!

Wompa164 04-08-13 10:27 AM

Just got mine installed, nice piece! The only thing I'll say is that I had to use a file to shave down the 4 holes for the quick release, the powdercoating made the holes too tight and I couldn't get the screws through.

chiefboon 04-09-13 10:52 AM

God bless SBG. Got the new hatch mount in and it looks great, especially with the chrome extinguisher. Having such a high-spec extinguisher within easy reach really needs to be mandatory for all of these 20+ year old cars.
