More new parts for my Beetle!!
Posted by Fabio Caris | Posted in My Beetle
Here are a few more new parts I bought. I really gotta start actually fitting them to the car!! The new parts are: 1kg fire extinguisher, xenon timming light and Empi oil change gasket kit (in the photo you can also see the Empi magnetic oil sump plug, which I bought only because the original plug in the car is badly worn).
I got the exact same extinguisher last week!
Let me know where you fit it, I'm undecided...
Yeah Autobarh had a sale on them! It came with a bracket, but by law you gotta mount it somewhere where it won't come in contact with driver/passangers in case of colision...
Dammit, think I might have got mine before the sale... $30, I think. :-\
Probably the only place where you can be sure it won't come into contact with driver/passenger in event of a collision is the roof and under the rear lid. Not a great deal of use in either case...
People most commonly mount it on the front of the front passenger seat. I'll check later to see if it's easy or not to bolt the bracket to the seat shell.
