    Hi there. I recently purchased a First Alert Car Fire Extinguisher, and currently it is stored in the trunk where I have a small Rubbermaid bin for my emergency stuff (like tire air inflater, first aid kit, etc). I would like to mount the fire extinguisher in the cabin area, where I an get to it in an emergency. Any suggestions where it can be mounted?

    And no jokes about "where the sun don't shine"... my significant other already used that line :p

    I have read other threads on this subject, but none have addressed the actual installation location in 2010 Prius.

    I also have access to the Velcro for Plastics, which is usable on an automobile plastic surface.

    Thanks in advanced.

    I keep mine in the top glove box. I made sure the extinguisher would fit before I bought it.

    Thanks GrumpyCabbie. The fire extinguisher fits perfectly in the upper glove compartment. Didn't think to try that...

    A fire extinguisher fits nicely in the carpeted 'bin' area under the seat adjuster lever beside either front seat. Easy to access, and no rattles!
