@911slow: I am aware the CS has a prepared chassis for the Werner. The comfort version does not unfortunately. All details are more then welcome John

@ Bob: I thought the Werner fire extinguisher (as shown in top of this thread) is what comes standard from Porsche Motorsport

Good call. I hated the giant weiner bottle in my 1st RS. Felt like I had a passenger all the time.

The Werner bottle is chit.

Nobody will recharge them in USA. They are oversized and and a pain to mount in the concours location.
Not to mention the chemical will warrant your car useless if used. It will eat your electronics.

I painstakenly tried to have it recharged, and when i finally did have a chance the nozzle portion cracked off..... Just a really bad design.

The 991 clubsport finally have a smaller size bottle, however it wouldnt be period correct in a 997 clubsport if going for conours....

OEM 997.1 "civilian" mount. 100% unobtrusive.
