Sorry 'bout the hijack. But is there any way one could get a new label for the fire extinguisher?

Oh. Where should it be mounted? Right now it's behind the drivers seat.

I haveno idea about the label but I would be interested if you do find them. The mounting behind the drivers seat is correct.

Mr.D, I'm really surprised that none have come up on ebay. I used to see three or four a month come up.

That first bottle is a five pounder, waaay too big for the Mutt. The bracket I'm not sure about, could be for a purple k extinguisher.
