I'm buying some Quick Fists so I can mount my 3.5 lb white Kidde auto fire extinguisher and my MagLite (3D) to the driver's side rear corner wall of my cargo area. Question: will just one Super Quick Fist (2.5"-9.5" holding range) hold my extinguisher? Also, I'm using the two smaller (1"-2.5") Quick Fists that come in a pair to hold my MagLite - right call?
Seperate question: what size/type screw should I use, or is it possible to use bolt/washer/nut for mounting to rear side cargo walls? Any advice?

I'm using two Super Quick Fists to hold that 20 lbs CO2 tank (very heavy) in the photo and a third to hold the recovery strap. I don't think you'd need more than one for your fire extinguisher. I would put a backing plate or at least a LARGE fender washer on each side of the plastic panels in the cargo area to keep the plastic from cracking. Maybe it's over-kill, but I prefer to go with plates/washers for applications like that where the plastic wall is concerned.
Note that I use quickfists to keep the shotgun in place on the rack.
EDIT: I use the M-PAC side rack to secure my fire extinguisher (photo below)

Thanks, Uphill. I really like those M-PAC side and rear racks - for both functionality and overall look. Maybe I'll take that route instead. Thanks for the advice.
uphill,
nice lookin set up. where did you get the large mpac rack that the gun is mounted to? I haven't seen that on springtail solutions.
