Mine's a small Firemaster brand (comes in colours so can match your interior) fittted into its supplied clip to the floor crossways in front of the passenger seat - just in front of the chassis rail. Doesn't get in the way of passenger's legs or bother them. Fit button end towards driver for obvious reasons.

Not really there for an engine fire (why open 4 clam clips to feed the fire with oxygen anyway - better scarper instead!) but rather a cockpit fire (unlikely as it may be).

Note, for example, comment on the proper way to fight an engine bay fire in a Noble.

I just used small hose clamps to attach the frame of my extinguisher to the passenger seat rail, can be removed easily and out of the way below passengers knees, just a little heavier to adjust the seat but easy to take the bottle off if you want to.
