Does anyone have any photos of the factory spec windscreen wash bottle and bracket location & set up they could share with me please. I have what I believe is a custom billet Ali bottle, but have a seized riv nut bolt that attaches the base of the battery bracket and wash bottle to the floor, so want to consider my options for a re-design.
Many thanks.

Many thanks everyone. Mine is slightly different with a solid ali billet bottle on the battery side. One of 7litrebig's original custom parts on his built car seen below here:



My brake fluid reservoir is further outboard so no room for the wash bottle in the factory position. Never mind, the perfectionist in me was brainstorming all possible solutions as one of my floor mounting rivnuts has come loose, the bolt just spins but does not loosen and will not unscrew out now, but still able to just about take battery out if and when I need to, plus all is secure rock solid when all other bolts are tightened down so I will leave alone for now. I'm not starting any pig of a job over Christmas, in a cold garage, and unfinished as I am back at work overseas again next week.

Height of washer bottle is crucial, otherwise the front clam won't close...... Don't ask me how I know this..... :-)
I was thinking the same. Although I did not build my car, I appreciate the work and consideration that has to go in to every little build task to getting a final well built car.
