OEM fire extinguisher and mount

[pavo335]

so you mounted to the seat anchor holes on the floor and it doesn't move with the seat?

[NoOg_sTaR]

Yes it is fixed and does not move with the seat. This picture illustrates the clearance better.

[woosh]

Nice work! Does it interfere with the functioning of the seat slider (ie: do backseat passengers still get to move the front seat all the way forward when getting in/out)?

[pavo335]

from that pic, i hope you dont lose power and have a fire at the same time! looks like you would have an interesting time getting it out without moving the seat back.

I just checked on my car (e92) and there aint no way i could do this without the seat tilted all the way back in the takeoff position

[NoOg_sTaR]

It can still slide forward a decent amount. People are able to get out with ease.

Haha *touch wood* if you tilt the extinguisher you can actually still grab it out with the seat forward. I will have the passenger seat slid back tonight during the track meet hahaha.

not having a go noog, in fact good thinking

Sweet thanks, I might try this quickly considering I have 40mm aluminum flatbar laying around. If it impedes with the slider too much i'll revert back to the underseat bracket thingy (yet to make). Good thinking man...

if you look back a couple of pages you'll see the pics i took of both brackets with the part numbers on the plastic bags

[Nugget]

Cool, thanks.

Any suggestions of where to get it?
Bmminiparts doesn't appear to have it anymore.

[pavo335]

i think you have to do the parts finder thing and they contact you when they have it, iirc it was overnight turnaround

[Liub]

Reviving this thread to give big props to pavo335 and others who did the investigative work for the bracket! Just ordered mine .

[BMW86]

Completely forgot about this thread. I've got the bracket sitting at home somewhere.

Nothing major though!

Pulling 3.6 on the reg mate. Can't wait to put meth back in

Got a few little issues that I need to sort out. Hoping its just coil packs and nothing $$$

How's your car running Sina?

Your tyres must love your right foot! 3.6 is just crazy. Yeah hopefully it's not an expensive fix - good luck.

I don't want to derail this thread too much... so I'll just say the car's been good. Running strong and still no tune. LOL

Will PM you now re some other business.

Any other suggestions of where to get it from? I never heard anything back from BMminiparts.
I currently have just a piece of aluminium to bolt the extinguisher to but would like this neater bracket.

Really? Did you submit an order? I went through the parts finder and they came back with a quote within half a day, and I ordered! This was yesterday.
