Default Washer Bottle Relocation Help

Hey Guys!

I'm trying to relocate my washer bottle.

I've removed 3 of the 4 screws of the bottle.
How do you remove the one screw, the on way up high under the light.

I've also removed the plugs and hoses.
I've also removed the filler pipe.

Here's my last question.

I see most people moving the bottle here

by the inertia switch.

But I have a big black cylindrical thing there that says something about a vacuum.

Interesting. Isn't there already some bracketry for a battery or something battery shaped on the frame rail under the front door?

The bracket attached to the frame rail, below the drivers door, is for the air ride pump. This spot would make filling the washer bottle nearly impossible or very difficult anyway and put it at even more risk of being cracked during off roading, in my opinion.

The pump that is attached to the firewall is for your SAI system. Removed the system on my trail rover and mounted the reservior there. Granted, your SAI system will never work again and your check engine light will come on every so many days, showing codes P1412 and P1415. Me, l didn't care about this and just blacked out the Service Engine Soon light in cluster and checked codes periodically.



Like anything, everything comes at a cost...gain a spot for the reservior...lose a spot for the stupid SAI system pump.
