Fire extinguishers ?

I keep seeing pics with fire extinguishers in the pass compartment. Where did you guys get you fire extinguishers? Any problem keeping them in the car during the hot summers?
Thanx

You can get them at any good hardware store. Mine was only like 7 bucks. I have seen them at Super K Mart, too. Not that I got there a lot or anything. I live in Arizona, and have not had a problem with mine. As long as it is not in direct sunlight, you should be okay. HTH Thomas

Whatever you do, make sure you get it checked at regular intervals. Nothing sucks more than grabbing it and trying to put out a carb fire and nothing happends....true me.
