Not Ranked
There are some good points on this thread. In summary, for me, the main concern would be under hood or under dash fire, and getting out of the car safely. I did sit in my cockpit and felt for "reach" and I think I have a good position picked out (should I mount this on the roll bar---still considering the drop bracket on the dash). The other is Halon as an oxygen displacement to remove the catalyst, and that spraying into the cockpit---other than the footwells---would probably be ineffective.
I have three nozzles on mine with a 5 lb. tank. I'm thinking two under the hood for engine protection and one under the dash for electrical protection. I have a 2 lb. bottle (chrome!) that will mount on the driveshaft tunnel between the seats to protect driver and passenger.
All that being said, I'm taking a second look at the aluminum drop down I had previously made for my dash and reconsidering it. I have a big red "punch button" kill switch that I don't want to mount into my dash, but tucked away on the bracket might look pretty cool. I have room for the fire cable and a power indicator light or extra switch.
I'll likely make my decision (uh, for at least six months...) and once I get it set up I'll post some pictures.
