Default Windsheild Water Tank Relocation

I'm building a new low profile bumper for my disco and I removed the giant water bottle that they hid under the bumper. I know others remove this monstrosity because it would be silly to leave it there with a different bumper, but I do like having my functioning sprayers so where do other people put this thing or how do you do the plumbing?

the plumbing and electrical is the easiest parts you just extend the what you have.

The problem is finding a location for that big bottle, one of the best i saw was someone simply replaced the tank with piece of 4 inch PVC pipe from Home Depot.

HD has the end caps needed and the tees needed to install the pump motors and fill cap. I believe it was mounted horozantally under the radiator and they ran the fill cap up to the top of the radiator using 1.25 PVC.

Just an idea.

My buddy relocated his to the rear right side of the engine compartment, where the SAI is on some of the D2s. If you do that tho, you'll notice the o2 sensor is right below that spot, and if you overfill the tank, you could ruin the o2 sensor from overflow, not to mention start a nice fire from all that methanol pouring on a hot exhaust.
