This is a really bad pic...but I relocated my coolant where my left hand is....it seems to work well for me.

mines a 2003.5 and i have to switch things around it moves and when i screw it on it is tilted

 

[Snacks McGee]

Mine's a 2003 and it sits fairly flush, but I've heard that people have had to work the thing it at certain angles for it to fit right. Or maybe I did mine wrong...(scratch)

I basically just used the bracket that it was already on and found an existing hole to screw it onto. I did some minor bending of the bracket, but it's all good.

I'm at work and I don't have any other pics....try this thread...there are some good pics of the reservoir relocation.

dude, do what i did, i had the same prob. take that bronze/gold braket piece that the coolant can sits on originally, hack off the one end with a hacksaw, and mount it like this, under the injen rubber stopper (it sounds like a ghetto job, but it sits perfect, unmoving, and it looks clean as hell):

 

[Matthew]

did that help?

 

[Snacks McGee]

YEah....I was wondering too.....(scratch)

 

[Matthew]

damn i just realized the thread you linked to was my solution lol

 

[Snacks McGee]

Dude....I was looking at your pic on the linked thread and thought that your car was an MSP. I was about to tell the guy to ignore the blue MSP pics because of the different engine setups between p5 and MSPs! I guess I thought it was too nice looking to be on a p5.

 

[Matthew]

(lol) thanks for the compliment!

 

[Matthew]

matthew did a good job thats what i had to do..and will have to do again

 

[Snacks McGee]

That's dirty!? s***...I popped my hood for the first time in a couple of months and I was like "****...my s*** is filthy" You can even see how gross it is the pic. I guess I have a project this weekend.

 

[Matthew]

[EviLMaN]
