I haven't seen pics of any. But I want to mount one on the cross bar that goes along the floor, just not sure what's under there - will have to look at my Helm's.

The pic is gone (with photopoint) but maybe Luis can post another of his on the passenger side floor.

Good question. I mounted one in my CRX and am thinking of doing the same in the S2000 but have not decided on where yet.
After reading about a few engine fires from oil filters that were not on tight enough I started thinking about this.

I carry one in my trunk. Velcro strips on the floor panels do the trick.

I have one because it is compulsory for track days over here. It is mounted on a bracket attached to the front seat rail bolts and sits in the gap between the front of the seat and the raised cross bar. It has been mounted in front of the left (passenger side for Australia) seat for over 2 years and sits in my car permanently even though I leave the car parked with roof off all the time.

I' ve mounted mine vertical along tranny tunnel passenger side just in front of passenger seat. its an easy reach to use it and can be well seen to look cool.
it's mounted by mini bungee cords and is solid and secure for driving, but obviously needs to be hard mounted. i like it better than on the passenger footwell crossbrace,
where it can impede ingress but fits good.

I have one in the boot which stays in place with velcro. It's out of the way and does not take up sapce in the cabin.

I see MyBad has one that way as well.
