    Will this one work on my Vintage RS sport seat? The sliders have the front release mechanism.

    Thanks Rick. The extinguisher I have is pretty much the same but the holding bracket is a cheapo. Also I didn't really want the extinguisher in the footwell. I will need to fabricate or buy some kind of suitable frame for the extinguisher 'bottle' and then think about a location. Maybe I should look for a better extinguisher.

    The lever for my Scheels are in the front as well, but to the corner. If your adjustment lever is in the front and middle, it will limit the amount of forward travel the seat will have. But still doable if you can live with the seat not being able to mover all the way to the forward position.

    I etch primed and painted mine with SEM trim black to reduce the Brey-Krause bling effect.

    Turned out fine I think....

    I've seen these come up on for sale, every so-and-so often. I know-I know --- looks kinda klugey . . . but this one's been in there for 40-some years and seems to hold the bottle just fine


    Enjoy your choices

    Does anyone have a photo of the brey-kraus bracket that is actually installed in an SWB car with original seats?

    I put mine on the passenger footwell-- drilling into the tunnel exposes the fasteners to fuel and electrical and control interference and the wooden footboards are cheap.

    But I would love to see if anyone has succesfully used the bracket, SWB seats, rails and sizes are different to shorthood.

    I purchased a Brey-Kraus bracket after reading this thread and installed it in the 67S last night.
    Slid the seat all the way back, removed the 2 forward screws and loosened the 3rd screw on each track.
    I gently pried the track up and slid the bracket under one side at a time, fits perfectly.
    The forward position of the seat is limited by the for aft locking lever.
    I'm a little confused by the fasteners included for mounting the extinguisher bracket. The screws looked like 10-32 pan head Phillips but didn't work with the tapped holes.
    I re-tapped the holes to M5 and will use low head hex socket screws.

    Ken, thanks, so it doesn't clear the slider lever-- one could install it but then the seat won't go forward. This is an important fact that I'm glad we now know.
