Element 50-second handheld fire extinguisher and under-seat bracket to mount a handheld fire extinguisher on E30 (1984-1991), E46 (1999-2006), and E90/E92 (2006-2013) 3-series models.
Included:
Element E50 Fire Extinguisher
BimmerWorld Seat-Slider Fire Extinguisher Mount
The Element E50 weights less than a pound and is held in the palm of your hand. Despite that it packs a full 50 second discharge time, nearly 5 times the typical bottle can deploy. It's also incredible rugged, unaffected by extreme temperature or vibration. Once you activate the Element, point the discharge cloud at the fire source and it immediately goes to work. This is a dry-chemical material that stops the chemical reaction needed to create a fire (heat + oxygen + fuel). It then has a smaller, secondary effect of smothering the fire to prevent a flare up*.
* Important note: fire systems are in place to limit YOUR exposure to fire so you can exit without getting burned. The system is there to get you out of the car and not necessarily to put out the fire. It is not to save your car, although that may be a happy ending.

This bracket is an easy bolt-on solution to mounting an Element Fire Stick under the passenger seat of most 3-series BMWs - E30, E46, E90*, E91*, E92*. Unlike other universal brackets on the market, ours is designed specifically for the Element fire extinguishers and is Made in the USA. Other brackets are made outside of the US and are not bottle-specific, leading to inadequate and potentially unsafe mounting.
*E9X Fitment Note: the seat track width is the narrowest of the models listed and fitment will be tight but we confirmed installation on multiple E9X models before release.
