05fordgt, I actually found a bunch on ebay. I'm going to look locally first though before I go that route. I like having one in all my vehicles and thought a blue one for the stang could be as visually pleasing as useful.

I don't mean to suggest the extinguisher itself will last a few minutes. I meant that I might be able to buy a few minutes of time if I can catch the fire early on. Even if you get the fire out, there's always the chance of it re-ignitiing with hot exhaust and what-not. The small extinguishers are basically once and done. If it's a full conflagration then no extinguisher will have any affect.

Inside its got an impressive first aid kit (bandages, gauze, scissors, ointments, splints, etcâ€¦). Its also got a semi-impressive tool kit, a plastic collapsible reflective caution triangle (like the Mercedes have), a tire seal and inflate kit, a tire gauge, and a red extinguisher with FORD, MERCURY, LINCOLN written all over it.

if i remember correctly that is the Road side assistant accesorie that some ford add in for free, wish i could have had that, but you can pick it up at most ford dealerships for a price

You really should secure them as if you were to have to hit the binders real hard , think of that projectile flying at someones head ! just a thought.
