What is the red tube thing in the first photo? My car has the black holders but not the red thing...

That's a flare, all japanese cars have to carry them. They're usually removed when they land here.

It is a flare, It is against NZ law to have them fitted to your car, so they are removed at the border on entry if they are still there.

over in japan they call them emergency flares, but to me, over here they are just a grown up version of sparklers

Hmmm I feel that my car is missing something now

How can I get my hands on one of these so I can put it on the black hooks? Pointless I know, but now I feel like my car is missing something and it's annoying me

a decent sized maglight fits perfectly

Pretty sure they would be tricky to post as they'd probably be classed as explosives...

i thought that was a thing too for a while, till i sold someone an airbag steering wheel. he assured me they only cared about that on international postage, and sure enough the lady at the post office didnt bat an eyelid.

YMMV i guess!

Flares are just nasty plus don't set em off near or out on the water. The coastguard and other boaties take emergency flares pretty seriously!
A torch would fit in those clips and be a tiny bit more useful... you could use a torch twice or even three times...

I never thought about it until you guys mentioned it. Glad to see that you're all dirty bastards

And no, I don't intend to search up a Japanese red tube... It'll probably involve something pretty disturbing
