Best place to mount Element fire extinguisher in ZD8

[Pat]

I plan to mount an Element fire extinguisher in my 2023 BRZ. Has anyone else done this? If so, have you come up with an elegant, unobtrusive, and maybe even discreet method? I'd love to see what others have come up with before ordering one.
I've seen the Ansix Auto solution. It looks very good. I'm just wondering what other options you guys have come up with.

I use that spot for my snow brush lol.

Why not just keep it in the front seatback pocket? The 2nd gens still have them right?

Interesting. I hadn't considered that, as I'm never back there and therefore don't think about it as an option. Nice.
I wonder if it would tip over and lay flat in the bottom of the pocket, therefore making it invisible to rescue workers in an emergency.
I don't yet have my new car, and therefore cannot say if they have the pockets. Or, if they do, if they're tight enough to hold it upright.

You can always attach a little hook or plastic tab or something so it i just "hangs" so to speak on the top of the pocket, similar to how a paperclip works.
Or even make a custom sticker and just place it on the back of the seat where the fire extinguisher is lol.

I think the pocket is just loose enough that an upright object will eventually just slide over and find its way flat on the bottom.

Im not sure if the 2nd gens have a back pocket, the first gen has one pocket, (i think its on the passenger side) which is what made me think about it.

Little piece of dollar store velcro tape on the pocket and extinguisher case should keep it from moving.

These extinguisher are great. I cringe every time I see somebody with an old 2 pounder sitting in the flimsy rack between the seats or someplace else in the cabin where it can quickly become a missile in a crash.

My only issue with the Element design is that it works great if the fire is directly accessible.

One situation it failed me was when I need to shoot extinguisher into the front of a car BEFORE I open the hood. The element does not project.
