Mounting Fire extinguisher?

Getting close to finishing interior before hanging the dog house. I always have an extinguisher on board and with this rebuild I don't want to drill holes in my new floors unless I have to. What have ya'll done? Behind seat?, under seat?
As always photos would be nice. Thanks

How about building a mounting plate that uses the same bolts as you seat frame, so it sits just to the left of your seat.

Nice, and quick to get to. On my 52 i mounted mine in the corner behind the drivers side door but it's not restored so i didn't give a rats behind on fit and finish. Different story for my 50. I'll have to look into the setup in the picture.
