Seat Mount Fired Extinguisher - Driver or Passenger Side?
I was able to obtain a very nice, near new Safecraft fire extinguisher. I just ordered a Brey Krause seat mount and was curious if mounting it on the drivers side presents any issues?
Since the seat mount restricts the forward movement I thought it would be better to mount on the drivers side since I am pretty much the only driver and the seat never needs to be adjusted. I'm just wondering if it gets in the way, etc. Hoping for some real world experience/feedback.

Here's a pic of mine. I mounted mine on the driver's side as my passenger side seat is manual and the bar was in the way. I have no problem at all with it being in the way. I made my own bracket and have since painted the extinguisher black to blend in with the carpet.
