What is that bag hanging between the interior plastic and taillight on my '84?

I'm in the processing of removing the interior from my '84 GSL-SE, and hanging right in front of the drivers side taillight is a white bag of some sort that seems to contain some kind of fluid. I didn't inspect it too closely yet to see where the tubes coming out of it go. I ran across this on another FB a few years ago, but I don't recall figuring out what it was for then. Google was no help, but I figure someone on here has got to know.

Also, my dad's got a silver '83 with Rewinds as well.

Another random question for you guys: Is this the bumper mount down in these holes in the back of the car? There plates over the holes, of course. One of them is severely rusted but the metal around it is fine.
