I stuck my thumb through the cappuccinos washer bottle the other day, and after being horrified at the prices of even secondhand units, i have decided to try and find a cheap alternative.
I was looking on eBay at these, but after looking in the engine bay space seems to be quite tight:

So after some searching i have decided to order one of these:

Hopefully i can find a nice neat place to mount it, maybe even in the same place as the original bottle, but i will post up some pictures next week if i come to a reasonable solution. |

| Well it fits and works well. Capacity is not huge but for the amount it gets used will be more than enough. Also easy to remove and clean out any crud underneath. |

Their prices don't change much from quoted usually, the postage may make it not worth it though; not sure if they have a UK branch to post via |
