    My guess is that it held a torch that you could use when changing fuses - any other ideas?
    Wish I had an owners manual.

    lol, Its an import, but the flare has been removed I'm just loving all the little gadgets its got though, like the cassette holder, cornering lamps, illuminated speakers, fade-out horn (sounds like a train going past), little box that tells you a tail light is out. Automatic AC is cool, watching the the levers behind the dash move by themselves - spooky

    Didn't get the little plastic information card thing on the drivers door though.

    its for a road flare.

    dont bother hunting down a jap one to put in there as it works out to be quite dangerous with the australian sun.
    as there is a possibility that the heat in a locked up hachi int he sun could set it off.

    Sounds like a job for Mythbusters. Keeping pyrotechnics in the car doesn't seem like a good idea though. Would like to find maglite that will fit that holder instead.
