    I have 2 in the cab. I have been trying to find a place to mount. Only place I can find is the trans tunnel on the passenger side.

    W/ a fire every second counts to get to the extinguisher.

    Anyone have a suggestion on where to mount in the cab?

    I mounted my extinguisher on the driver's side ledge of the trunk.
    I cant think of anywhere I would want to mount one inside.

    Good for you! It's good to post regular reminders of the importance of having a fire extinguisher on-board.

    An in-cabin application would be helpful, for quick response; but frankly, I can't think of a reasonable place to put one. One thing, though; if it must go in the trunk, get a big one, since there's little use in putting out half a fire.

    Um, how about making a hollowed out place on the underside of the rear arm rest. Folded down, it's out of sight, flip it up, and it's ready to go.
