Default Pics of Fire Extinguisher Option?

Does anyone have pictures of the fire extinguisher option? I was wondering where it was located, and what it looked like before ordering.

Thank you.

Mounts at front edge of drivers seat, completly out of the way.
A bargan at $140

I've seen it in person and it is mounted in front of the driver's seat where your heels would hit if they brought your knees up. Not a great place for comfort, good place for emergency use.

Maybe would be better to get your own and just put it BEHIND the passengers seat where it's more out of the way, but no less handy.

It's ugly too, big red thing in your cabin all the time.

I think this was a good option on the older P cars, but to be honest, if my new 997 catches fire, I hope it burns to the ground b/c I don't want it back.

Exactly! If the car is on fire I'm not gonna try to save it.

BUT the good thing is that if you see another roadside emergency you can jump in and assist. I like that ability.

Oh! Be SURE to ask the person whose car is on fire if HE wants you to save HIS car!

I ordered mine, because some track events require one in the cabin.

I think some company in California makes a retro fit sprinkler system for Coupes. I don't think the Cabrio has an available system. I just hated when they quit being offered from the factory......
