Washer Bottle Relocation

Plumber

New member
Ok I've searched on here and I have found the method I think I want to follow when I install the Demello bumper I just ordered http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/162494-relocated-wiper-fluid-container.html. Does anyone know of a better way to do this relocation that isn't going to cost an arm and a leg? I like the old style expedition one FJ bottle but the new one doesn't look like it will work and I can't justify the price tag.

Thanks in advance guys.

Just to bump the thread I will add some of my input. I purchased the reservoir in the link you provided and it just seemed too flimsy for my liking. I looked into plastic welders to create a custom one and it was going to cost more than I was willing to spend.....for the amount of rain here in San Diego.

I set my search aside until something better comes up. I now have a water spray bottle in the passenger seat back and occasionally spray my window to clean it. If I was in any other part of the country than the southwest I would have a bigger sense of urgency. But, it's worked out well and not even remotely a pain in the ass.

That said, I am pretty OCD and know others like me want things clean and tidy as well.
 
Just finished this up today. Probably still need some work on securing it but ill dig through my yota brackets and figure something out. I reused the stock container with some slight modifications and it worked out very well.

Don't know how much room you have in that bumper, I had extra room next to the winch and mounted one there. (I have a Coastal Offroad bumper)

Used a cheap (10 bucks) washer bottle off Amazon and used a step bit to make holes for the pumps, since it was so close to the original location I was able to reroute hoses and wires without any modifications.
