Default Electrics - what are these?

I've a recently acquired a K4 which had a tail tidy fitted but the number plate light dangling off and held on by 1 wire so I thought I'd better fix it before the upcoming MOT.
I managed to put a new LED on that but when I looked under the passenger seat, the electrics seem to have been chopped up.
The long rectangular thing was just rolling around in the cavity. The cylindical thing is some kind of switch and was just attached by one wire. The other had come off.
I'm just wondering what they are. All the lights and indicators seem to work.
Maybe the bike had an alarm fitted in the past as there is a battery charger connection attached to the right hand side of the frame. (Are the inputs on these universal or particular to specific chargers?)

Apologies for the pic....it's the best my phone can do.

Long rectangular thing looks like a resistor. Does it have LED indicators, or it may have had them in the past?

Yeah, it's got LED mini indicators. They work (although the left hand side flashes quicker than the right) and so do the hazards.

Flashing quicker means you are missing a resistor that's one piece sorted!!

i had the same thing found a switch under the seat disconnected im pretty sure it was for the alarm for some reason the previous owner has disconnected the alarm, i have looked through all the papers i got with the bike and it was fitted with an alarm from new so need to find some sort of manual for it see if i can connect it up again.
