Ok, today's pet peeve is fire extinguisher brackets. I have a Kidde extinguisher mounted behind the pilot seat. The extinguisher has held up beautifully, but the bracket is another story. The only ones I can find have a stainless steel hold strap (fabulous) but the bracket itself is cheap steel that rusts faster than a 1975 FIAT. Any brilliant ideas on where to source an all stainless one?

I have never had any problems with the plastic mounts. They hold up well even on an extinguisher mounted horizontally by a previous owner.

Re: Fire Extinguisher Bracket
Thanks to Russell I searched high and low for a plastic bracket. Finally, found a beefy one. Diameter of lower was slight small but just cut it and it works fine.
