Here's a C5 with a Vetteworks set up.
.

The vetteworks setup looks really clean compared to the others I have seen.

Its nice having this Forum for stuff like this. Being a very new C5 owner I have a lot to learn and see. Honestly I have never seen my own Z06 in person Sad HUH.

I used to carry the HALON extinguisher in my trunk, which in my mind would encourage me to GET OUT OF THE CAR IN CASE OF FIRE. That's still my advice if your car is the one on fire.
I now have a BREY KRAUSE mount on the passenger side. I used spacers under the extinguisher bracket on the two top bolts to tilt the extinguisher at an angle, reducing the chance of a passenger possibly getting caught on the handles. My wife still doesn't like it there.
Wow I actually got on a computer that would show this picture!!! Very clean install. I think the vetteworks bracket works alittle better though. Unless I am seeing things and they are the same.... ]

Having it installed in front of the passenger set really doesn't look to bad!!
