andy....easy .The long bracket fits in between the bolt that holds the front of the seats down. There is no drilling required. Simply undo the bolts, place the bracket in postions, fasten the bolts

speak to dspeed on here

looks great! but i wouldnt think it would put out an under bonnet fire! having had one myself a few years ago, in fact best thing to do is not open the bonnet as when you do it gives the fire more oxegen to burn! as i discoverd to my cost.. fire man said most underbonnet fires will go out due to lack of oxegen and unless youv'e got half a dozen of those your better off leaving it shut, sorry didnt mean to **** on your strawberries,just giving you and others a tip

My strawberries are quite okay thank you
Yes, fully understand about the ability of these little devices, but if I had a choice of trying to make an effort in putting out a fire or just sitting there waiting for it to die down to lack of oxygen , then I would choose the former.
