Can someone tell me where to buy a under seat fire extinguisher mount for a 69 Camaro. I did a search on net and didn’t find anything.

Most custom camaros don't have room under the seat for a fire extinguisher.

Most I've seen attach them to the front edge of the seat or to the seat track. Look at Scott's or Steve Rupp's cars as a sample.

Sure they do.. a great place is just forward of the passengers's side seat. My extinguisher is from SafeCraft and had a mount. Then I just just fabbed a plate out of sheet alum and voila! under seat mount (well technically, in front of seat mount)

I will see if I can dig up a picture.

Thanks everyone for your input

That is what I mean, it is not under the seat it is in front or on the console or somewhere else!

I like where Steve mounted his and I was going to do the same. In the end, since I didn't have a console, I put it between the seats.

Here you can see the plate mounted with the Safecraft billet mount. This way it's held in place by the front seat bracket bolts. It's shaped like a T with a slight offset so that the extinguisher sites centered to the seat. We also put a slight angle (using a break) at the intersection of the T so it would sit right.

Thanks Steve.

Come on Steve - You can get better seat bolts then those ! Doesn't Penny deserve ARP stainless 12 points holding your ass in the car ?
