I don't know about the fire extingusher, sorry!

Off topic:
From the pictures you can see that Iceman's light switch is pushed in. Mine is poped out. Is this a function or a "bug"? I know that it's possible to push it in but the sound when you does that doesn't sound very healthy. Nothing important just wondering...

no, i remember he stated at some point that he has it pushed in at times, i think ... i think it may be a "safety" feature in case of an accident .. so it gives in, instead of your knee cap ...

Correct!
To protect the kneecap in case of an accident. No problem if it's in, mine is allways pushed in, it can even be turned in that position.

Thank You! iceman. do you see a way that it can easily be removed/installed?

does anybody have access to TIS & get instructions on how to install?

and ... would anybody be willing to purchased the fire extinguisher & nokia 6310i snap in adapter for me, and ship it to me? ...

I'm pretty sure it can't be shipped.
They are under pressure and are considered "dangerous".
