whos got a flare in their JDM car

[jasongtr]

the one i just got has one so its going in my own personal car, none of the other imports i have broke have had them so are they rare now, i can imagine some not coming over to this country with them and some people just letting them off

[JDM-MAT]

If you get another I want 1st dibs lol. My ma starlet gr turbo has one

[jasongtr]

if they are worth anything id of sold it, but theres one on ebay at the moment for £5

I wouldn't say they're that rare... mine's got one. They're nothing special really, although I'm sure they probably fall under some law or other about having firearms in your car

They are surprisingly unspectacular when you set them off, possibly due to their age.

Passenger side kick panel, the same place that the bonnet release is on the driver's side.

flare ? hell no, I carry a fire extinguisher

[alanmr2turbo]

I have one in mine

Don't think you are meant to send these through the post through

[willfinch36]

Yup got one

[TbarSAN]

Yes,I've got one these...best before though

Instead of a warning triangle,you're supposed to let it off when you break down(in Japan)

[Harold]

I'm disappointed, mine doesn't have one.

[asdrewq]

I have one, but nowhere to put it as I replaced the sill trim with that from a UK car. I was rather looking forward to letting it off and waving at the RAC van if I ever broke down on the M6!

[Moo]

I got one

[loudandproud205]

Mine had one, it was thrown in the boot.

I ripped all the plastics out so it wouldnt fit in the car now anyway

[riot68]

I'm going to check today...

[Joey]

I've one

[riot68]

Nope, nothing there, just two rectangular holes in the trim which I guess it fixed to...

What's the law regarding posting these?

[jasongtr]

same as an airbag i expect, not allowed unless deactivated - not that anyone would know, but when i broke a mk4 golf i had lots of people wanting the airbag shippng abroad but i refused everytime as they would be flown there at some point and i wasnt going to be responsible for bringing a plane down with an explosive device (not sure if the pressure difference might just set one off)
