Fire extinguisher placement?

Question:
Fire extinguisher placement?Well I decided to buy two Kidde Class 10BC 2.75lbs Model 466141. Now I just need to mount them. I was thinking of these www.combogrip.com. I really haven't haerd anything about them. I was thinking of putting them on the vertical bars behind each front seat. Is this unadvisable, should I put them someware else. I think 5.5lbs will be enough. I might place one under the hood, is this a good idea?

Answer: I use a Merrimac dry chemical fire extinguisher by Ansul, mostly because I get the refills for free. It came with an over center latch mount that is now sheet metal screwed to my floor tool box, between the front seats: http://billhughes.com/extingui.jpg Remember you most be able to reach it upside down pinned underneath the steering wheel, blinded by gasoline.
