Go to wal mart or prep boys and get you a small 50 something pc tool kit and keep it in your trunk. I've got one and its been great. You don't need anything major just something you can take lights off and the intake or something.

I have a mint condition skull shifter with matching skull window lock buttons from a BMW I bought. MINT CONDITION SON.

Other than that, I get all my accessories from the clearance table at Advance Auto on Western.

^I keep about 40lbs of tools in the 240sx at all times

it's my main tool collection and I can do anything I need to on the car with just those tools (from spark plugs to stereos to engine pulling!.. of course, I'd need my cherry-picker for that, but I'm just saying). I keep the laptop handy for long drives in case I need to work the ECU.

I have a tire iron, electric air pump (for spare tire), and a "break in case of emergency" condom packet.

...

Oh, and there's the extra box of fuses, flash light, and a 20lb halon fire extinguisher...
