Is there a Fire Extinguisher Mount for the G available?

Anyone install a Fire Extinguisher in the G sedan? I'm looking to mount it within reach of the driver's seat. Ideally it would be mounted to the passenger seat rails (i.e. lean over and grab it).

Does anyone make a bracket that can piggyback on the seat mounts?

Are there any other slick ways to do this?

how big is the extinguisher?
My G came with an extinguisher from factory that was mounted in the trunk with double sided tape. Upon my first aggressive drive with it, the thing broke loose, rolled all over the place and broke the nozzle which sprayed powder everywhere till it was empty.

Depending on how far back you sit, you can mount it under the driver's seat or the the footwell if you don't mind loosing some comfort.

Are you talking about bolting through the floorpan?

In other brand circles (Porsche, BMW come to mind) companies make mounts that piggyback off the seat mounting points and require zero mod to the car. Since seat mounting points are unique these brackets need to be customized to the car type.
