      Hope it wasn't a manual 993-- they are rare enough already!!

          It's what I fear most. I have noticed that UK vintage (SPLITS & BAYS) VW kombi owners install a fire extinguisher system in their engine bay, that can be operated from the cab. I wonder if it's not a bad idea concerning rarity & expense of the 901.

            Might be fun trying to get it shipped out here via air freight.

            Bit worried about the 79 deg C temp set off. I am sure my engine can get pretty hot on summer days, plus clearance might be a problem finding a good mounting spot ?
