Where did you put your Lifehammer?
Hi all,
am going to install the lifehammer in my D3, but cannot decide on the best location.

I want to be able to reach it easily, even in emergency situations e.g. hanging upside down in the seatbelt , but also preferably not damage the interior too much or too much in sight....
Would like to know at what smart locations you have affixed the lifehammer.
Thanks for your input, Paul

If I were fitting one I'd probably put it in the middle glovebox - no damage to interior and easily accessible by both front and rear seat passengers!2014 D4 XS

Hi J@mes,
I take it you mean the chubbybox? That would be a good place, except that I have the fridge version of the chubby and that doesn't leave room for the lifehammer. Inside of cover has the base for the phone cradle so no room there as well.....
Thanks, Paul

Have thought about that as well. Still one of the options. Let's see what other locations boil up from the forum.
I should probably install it out of sight if I were to follow up on your suggestion how to find out who's man's best friend Wouldn't want the SWMBO to get hold of it during that period in the car....
