Default Windshield Washer Reservoir

We are upgrading from the 1 speed to the 2 speed wipers. Since the switch is capable of running washers, I'd like to add those too. I would have used the factory type bag, but since there are added parts in the engine bay, that won't work. I need a pretty small tank with a self contained pump, for simplicity and to save space. Does anyone have an idea for a really small tank that would either look sort of factory or at least look vintage?

I bought a kit from AZ for my 67 Stang. It came with the windshield washer reservior w/internal pump, wiring, hoses, and button for under $17.00. It was a universal kit and I don't remember the part number but could find out. They didn't keep it on the sales floor, it was in the back with the windshield washer pumps. The reservior is not that big, and fits nicely where the original reservior was. Fits nice in the engine bay and looks factory correct to the untrained eye.

You could look into the bottle and pump for a 69, however it is probably way too big for your application. BUT, it will still be a mustang part!

That would be cool 4reboy, but I think its too big.

I thought about looking for a kit like that Ogre, but I don't have room for it either I don't think. How big is the tank?

I don't have much fender space left. I have a coolant recovery tank, headlight relays, and the ignition coil mounted on the driver side inner fender. I need something extra small to mound down low.

Maybe I should move the headlight relays. Even if I did that, there wouldn't be alot of room.
