2012 210 Fire Extinguisher

Am I crazy?

I want to mount my fire extinguisher on the inside under the observer seat. The 2 blue circles are where I want to drill through the fiberglass to mount it. I would use a #10 flathead machine screw, and use a flushmount drill bit so the screw would sit flush in the fiberglass.

Is the fiberglass thick enough there for this? I really like that mounting location because it is essientially wasted space so the fire extinguisher is not taking up any usable space.

Would it be better just to glue the bracket from the inside and forgo the holes? If so is there a glue strong enough?

Thanks.

I mounted one in front of the drivers seat on my 2011 210, sorry no photos of my application however i pulled the below photo off the web for reference (I think it's a 2013 210).
I mounted it to the SS access plate so I wouldn't have to put any hole in the fiberglass, it's out of the way for me, yet close enough to maybe be useful.

That's a great place! Didn't think about that. Will have to look at that. Thanks!

I mounted mine on the inside of the engine compartment behind the back seat on my 08 210. Its totally useless if there is an engine fire but that's OK I will not even try to put out an engine fire that is why I pay for insurance.
