Fire Extinguisher in boot?

i was told by VW sales guy it was for a fire extinguisher

I think I was told the metal bracket on the left side of the boot was for the fire extinguisher. The safety triangle symbol is moulded in the plastic trim.

Owner's manual confirms left side boot strap is for first aid kit.

Found these photos of an OEM ?Audi fire extinguisher bracket for under the passenger's seat.

i was told by VW sales guy it was for a fire extinguisher

on the side or the one near the boot lid? (on the side, its for the first aid kit, as the guy previous to me said).
The fire extinguisher I got from bunnings fits perfectly on the side.

Anyone looking for inspiration on how to mount a fire extinguisher in the cabin - see this site about an aftermarket Porsche bracket that attaches to the front seat mounts.

Alternatively, there is a BMW OEM bracket

Plus they can use a halogen gas extinguisher. Why can't we get those here??? Dry powder makes an awful mess of the dash. (But less than an uncontrolled electrical fire.)

Heres a cool OEM extinguisher mount for a VW Phaeton - hiding under carpet.

More alternative sites for extinguishers in VWs - top of thread like the Porsche one above but home made; bottom of thread shows a boot mounting.
