Welldone on this so far Slash :thumbsup: , how big would the washer bottle have to be ? in comparison to say...a daily item we'd know ? might be able to find something to do the job better

LOL!!

Its not that bad really? I repair and make guitars for a living and its intricate work at times believe me!!!

 

Thanks for the offer of help re the washer bottle,but I think I may have sussed it?

What do you think?

Ive fitted the aircleaner houssing and some hoses too. The washer `tube` coming out of the bottle will go under the scuttle when its fitted.

All good fun...............

 

Its weird when you take a close up pic it sometimes looks worse than in real life?

The coil looks distorted but it isnt!!

This is how its going!!!

 

Ive modded the steering wheel to resemble the Moto Lita that was fitted to my cooper? The extra `spoke` is a cocktail stick!!
