25mm x 4mm flat bar. I ended up using two pieces welded together in the middle. (2 meter length was too big to get home so bought 2 x 1 meter).
Thought it might give too much if only bolted at the ends, so added a central brace.
Tie down points removed for now, and bolted in place.
Found a bracket underneath the carpet under the cup holder. It has two holes that are perfect for a couple of M5 rivnuts.
Back from the powder coaters.
Thought that would be better than a painted finish inside the car.
Final fit with tie down points over the top of the flat bar.
2 x M5 bolts in to the random bracket. Just a small notch needed on the bottom edge of the cup holder.
Bottle jack in its case strapped down and folding Zombie shovel with the jack pads next to it. Might get another strap and tie the blocks down separately.
No longer rattling around loose.

Also seen the post about that other type of extinguisher. I will see if I can find that in south Africa.
I like all the things you have added/made

MUDSTUFF
I trimmed 17mm from the lip that hooks over the door top. (Defenders mustn't have an internal weather seal)
Luckily I had a damaged centre arm rest, that I'd kept (never throw anything away )
Fabric removed and you have the foam padding.
Mark out the plastic shell to suit your template.
And cut to size. Then cut the foam padding to size and trim with the fabric removed earlier.
It provides a much more comfortable elbow rest when on long boring roads.
