    Same here. Looks pretty easy on the NB...(famous last words.)

    I'm thinking of using one of these as an expansion tank for the radiator.

    I installed this unit the other day, finally got some pics of it. Was super easy on the NB.






    I opted for the easiest install, which for me was drilling new holes and bolting the thing down. The bracket install just looked like way too much monkeying around. I tried to use the one original hole where the brake line was secured to the firewall, but that put the unit at too much of an angel so I moved it outward and drilled a little higher.

    So the image below shows the original bolt on the left and the hole on the right (Blue arrows) and the new and improved mounting bolts (Orange arrows.) I bought new metric bolts and nuts from Orchard Supply, one spacer was required on the filler side mount, scavenged from my box of extra Miata parts.



    I ran the wires through the hole that used to house the water line, just cut and spliced them then taped them up. Works like a champ! Still sits at an angle (pump end is higher than filler end) but more than enough juice available for my needs.

    Thanks to those before me for the link to the part and the motivation to do the job. Engine compartment is looking pretty spacious now!

    Cheers!

    I've done this mod twice now. Once as a normal washer bottle.. Once to make air space for my ITBs.. well, take a look. Suzuki's expansion tank takes the same size cap as the washer bottles! I love standardisation. an 18mm/17mm blanking plug fits where the 12v pump motor would.



    Ebay item link for the cap ;-) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/391652090661
