while the car i was driving at the time of the engine fire yesterday did not
have a fire extinguisher in it, all my other cars do.  i have a black car,
and keep the fire extinguisher in the trunk. im sure it gets hotter than 120
in there, and ive never had a problem. also most all westys have fire
extinguishers in them, next to the slider door. think about it.     it wont
be a prob.
