there are two clips on the passenger kick panel (where the ECU is) that hold the flare (small red cylinder)

It's not a flare gun, just a red handheld flare. Still fun though :)

the signal flare is used when ever your car happens to break down while driving over some railway tracks, and there is an oncomming train heading in your direction.

its all true, that is the diagram given in my japanese manual

It was for the japanese guys who get lost after drifting at night. When they fall down the cliff or are in the woods sumwhere. Thats what they are for. They should come equip in every jap car. But some stole mine! I wanted to try it out.
