So I have seen this before and it's driving me crazy trying to figure out if it actually exists as a factory part or if it is a modification.

I saw a picture on the forums that shows a flashlight mounting point with a flashlight mounted below the hood latch pull on the drivers side kick panel.

I will post a picture of it in a bit.

Does anyone's Stock X have this? Is it not available in the states? Japan or Europe or something?

If so where do you find this part number!?

 

I've never seen what you describe. Please do post a picture.

 

Here it is... Looks legit? Any ideas?

 

well, it's not factory here anyways,

that's a right hand drive evo, so maybe it was a JDM market option. Or maybe somebody just cut a hole in the kick panel.

 

I work around plastics and it never looks that good by just cutting into a panel. looks molded in there to me. I also noticed the RHD so probably only available in Japan. (the console gives that away) Anyone have a Part Number possibly?

 

me too. for Evos

I just looked close tho, and I do see a clip near the center of that...it looks like a surface mount c-clip of sorts. Now I want one for the mere reason that it exists.

 

Definitely not cut, definitely JDM. saw this here googling the crap out of it...

 

rhd looks so weird. the flash light idea is cool though

 

Looks to be the spot were they have the OEM (in Japan) Road Flare mounted. This is common with a lot of JDM cars.

I would personally assume that the Flash light was not a factory option and was just done by the owner of that car.

Wouldn't be hard to do. Just find a flashlight the same size as the flare to fit there

To bad we never received anything like this here in the States I have always thought that was a cool little something different with JDM cars over the USDM ones

Yea, I don't think the us would be in love with a pyrotechnic in the passenger seat. but the flashlight idea is novel. or an umbrella.
