made up some 3d printed brackets after being inspired by a facebook post.... (the top one is the final version, it doesn't grip quite so hard!)

a little job sorted and a bit of security with old cars!!!
these are basically a type of flare, once fired up (ironically) they run for 25/50/100 seconds depending on what one you buy, letting you fight the fire or get to safety, depending on the severity. they are a one hit thing, but better than nothing. you can even set it off in the car and close the door on it... obviously not a good idea if the boot is the issue but you get the idea!
anyhoo, just a thought! i got mine from here.... https://www.force4.co.uk/search?query=Fire+Safety+Stick+Extinguisher+
oh, and they are clean, no foam or powder to clean up after!
