Secure and Flexible Installation but Creativity May Be Required (2021 Subaru Outback)
I could make this a pretty complicated and lengthy review, but I"m not going to. I could also talk myself into a less than five star rating, but I didn't see any similar product that would do as well and the end result is excellent, so five stars it is. What I would tell you:1. SECURE MOUNTING REALLY MATTERS. When I finished, I had a 2.5# Amerex Halotron mounted securely under the front of the driver's seat. My install is basically bulletproof, but I had to modify the installation. Secure mounting is very important, more important even than quick access in my opinion. Vehicles are involved in high-G accidents (collisions, rollovers, etc.) far, far more often than vehicle fires. You do NOT want a fire extinguisher becoming a projectile in an accident. Modern vehicles are extremely good at protecting occupants from injury - even a small fire extinguisher flying around could kill someone if there's a head impact. Five stars for secure mounting, no question, though on my 2021 Subaru Outback Touring XT I had to modify the installation (see below).2. HIGH QUALITY MATERIALS/GOOD DESIGN. Five stars here too. At least for a smaller fire extinguisher, this will be bombproof if installed correctly. An extinguisher in the 2.5# range is great. If very securely installed, you might get a 5# extinguisher mounted securely. The materials here are high quality. The various parts of the mount are good steel with what looks like a good quality powder coating. The holes are accurately placed and properly tapped. The fasteners are stainless steel (extra credit for that). Perhaps we should be able to take those things for granted, but there's a lot of garbage on the market. The same goes for the design. It's simple, flexible, strong and secure if properly installed. One area where the flexibility of this design turned out to matter was how the fire extinguisher was spaced horizontally. You can set it up so the head of the unit is either on the inside or outside, and you can move the central part of the mount left or right to clear the seat mounts/rails or to reduce the chances of snagging your feet when you enter or exit. This is a big plus.3. CREATIVITY MAY BE REQUIRED. The two installation methods in the instructions (which I thought were adequately clear and detailed) will probably take care of most vehicles. They weren't going to work securely on my vehicle. The front seat rails are shaped in a way that would make it hard if not impossible to get what I consider an accident-proof installation, and the plastic trim around the seat rails makes the installation more challenging if you don't want to rip out the trim around the seat rails. That would probably be a rational and only minimally visually disruptive choice, but I wanted something a little more polished. What I did is very simple to describe. In real life, working at the front edge/half under the driver's seat slowed things down. Basically, I replaced the set screw that is tightened against the seat rails to clamp the mount with socket-head screws that thread through the existing tapped holes in the clamps into new holes that I drilled and tapped in the inside side of the seat rails. Easy to describe. Properly positioning the holes, drilling them very low on the rails, and driving a tap (M6 x 1.0) to cut threads on the new seat rail holes wound up taking more time than you'd think it should, and getting the side clamp pieces tight against the seat rails when both pieces are threaded requires some care and attention. I'm still giving this five stars here, but if your vehicle is one of probably very few that don't really work easily with the generic installation you'll need to use some ingenuity and care...but the other mounts I looked at didn't look like they were going to allow me to get creative with a secure installation, which is why I'm going with five stars here. If you expect that something like this should fit every vehicle ever made and install securely in five minutes or less, you'd probably give it fewer stars.3. RANDOM NOTES.- Be aware that depending on your installation, there may be seat adjustment issues. I have mine installed almost touching the front/bottom of the driver's seat. I'm tall and the seat is nearly all the way at the back of its adjustment range. So, someone who's short enough (which would be most people) isn't going to be able to adjust the seat to move it forward - without removing the fire extinguisher and mount. And if they do, unless you have a sedan with an enclosed trunk, where are you going to put that missile-fire extinguisher?- The instructions recommend using blue Loctite thread locker (242) or similar. That seems like a good idea. You don't want the various fasteners becoming loose as a result of vibrations.- I spent a fair bit of time retrieving fasteners that I'd dropped...because they rolled under the seat and then into a space below the interior floor pan and the outer floor pan. I could have saved myself a lot of time if I'd stuff a t-shirt or hand towel under the seat to stop that.

Fantastic Safety Addition to Any Car!!
I recently purchased a heavily modified 2008 Corvette Z06 and given the power it makes, I definitely wanted to get a fire extinguisher mounted in the car somewhere. This under-seat mounting bracket was the perfect solution! I’d say it was among the easier installations I’ve done with parts on my car; after about an hour I had it secured with the fire extinguisher in place. Not only is this system additional safety in case something goes very wrong but also looks sick! It fit my C6 perfectly. Would highly recommend this product… it’s a little on the expensive side but I’d say it is worth it for sure given the quality and ease of installation. And in case you’re wondering what extinguishers fit this mount, it’s in the product description! I went with the Amerex which is made in the USA. Would highly recommend that as well :)

Great fire extinguisher for my track car
Grabbed this fire extinguisher for my track car because, let’s be honest, things get a little spicy out there sometimes. Haven’t mounted it yet, but first impressions are solid—it’s compact, sturdy, and looks like it means business. I like knowing it’s ready to go in case something goes sideways (literally or figuratively). It’s the kind of thing you hope you’ll never need, but if you do, you’ll be glad it’s not a flimsy knockoff. Adds a bit of peace of mind—and honestly, makes the car look just a bit more race-ready.

Won't fit 2015-2023 mustangs.
Works, likely supports many vehicles. Didn't support 2015-2023 Mustang seats. I had to take a grinder to the outer tabs to make it work. Paint finish damages easily when tightening down bolts. Feels overpriced for 5 bent steel strips and a few bolts.Setup would've been relatively quick and painless if it did support my vehicle out of the box. Saves a lot of needing to be creative with your own solution, especially if you don't own the tools to do so.If you are handy and the have tools and time, save the money and make your own. If you don't, I guess give this a shot because it's cheaper than buying the rest of the tools you'd need to make your own.

Fire Extinguisher up front!
Was going to purchase one from Australia specific for my 2015 Subaru Forester but found this on Amazon for a better price!Needed some muscle to loosen the bolts from my seats and an extra set of hands to hold the fire extinguisher extending brackets so that I could Allen them in place, and bend them a little so I could fit my floor mat underneath. Other than that, it looks pretty solid!Now it’s within reach and not in the cargo space!

Not great....
It's overpriced for what it is. It's more flimsy than expected. The only way these are "secured" in the seat rail method, is by small set screws you have to manually tighten at each end. That takes awhile especially since it's a tight space. And if you bring the seat too far forward it can push the bracket off the rails, even if you tighten the set screws as much as possible. It needs design improvements. And you better have blue thread locker on hand, because you'll need it for every screw. I thought the thread locker should've been included with the bracket. I installed this bracket under the front of my driver side seat of my 2022 Ford Ranger Lariat Tremor.
