    I googled sites that sell first aid kits and got a pretty comprehensive one in the end. I looked at all the things in the kits and worked out how much I could get everything for individually (through a wholesaler that I could use through work) and it still worked out cheaper just to buy the kit. Plus it came in it's own little kit with everything labelled so it was easy to find things in a rush.

    My car one (when it's actually stocked) has

    bandaids
    saline
    alcoswabs
    gauze
    tweezers
    opsite/tegaderm
    sling x 2
    plastic bags
    spew bag
    bandages of various sizes
    face mask
    scissors
    sterile needle tips (great for splinters!)
    steri strips
    my spare stethoscope and BP cuff
    notepad
    pen
    neuro torch
    kidney dish
    ice pack (the kind you snap to activate)
    panadol
    one of those thin silver blankets
    themometer
    regular torch

    my house one has:
    bandaids
    savlon
    dettol
    bandages of various sizes
    sling
    panadol
    children's panadol
    neurofen
    themometer
    saline
    alcoswabs
    needle tips (sterile)
    opsite
    steri strips
    neuro torches

    I think that's it. I have a medicine cabinet choc full of stuff in the house so my kit isn't as comprehensive as my car one.
