I've got a Halon unit screwed to the panel just above where the stick shift
goes into the floor.

Very interesting!
I never would have thought horizontal position ideal.
I like the notion of mounting on the passenger seat pedestal,
which is handy in an emergency, which is the only time I can
imagine using a fire extinguisher!
Thanks,
