I find putting a mag light torch in the flare holster fills the space quite well & is a lot more useful than fireworks if you need to pop the bonnet / change a tyre ;)

Not sure about the legality of them, they very well could be allowed .. but I've been told that they should be taken off the cars during compliance, due to not knowing how old they are / what the condition is like.. therefore being deemed 'unsafe'

Some cars manage to slip through without them being removed though, so who knows..
