My problem is that I broke my left arm very badly a few years back and I’m not
able to straighten it and stretch to reach things. So mounted under my legs would be a better option. Food for thought. Thanks.

The clamp is not tight, the plastic-coated arms around the base and neck do most of the holding, so it is quite easy to release and grab with one hand.
On the Land Rover engineering cars, the fire extinguisher could be installed on either side of the vehicle so I suspect the holes are present on both the left and right side of the car regardless of hand of drive.
You could maybe push a long sowing needle through the carpet to check if the hole is there?

Do you know if the same three holes are already in the driver’s side floor so that it could be fitted there? Then it would be readily accessible.
