@Gary. Some post/threads from you in the past your concern was about using the windscreen washer bottle for your water/meth injection. At that stage I was not sure. Gladly I can report the following:
1.Yes you can use the windscreen washer bottle.
2.But mix must never be different from 50/50.
3.That mix will not harm anything on your plastics outside the car or on paintwork or alike.
4.Pump must be lower than washer bottle.
5.Make sure what ever liquid was in your washer bottle is totally removed and cleanly washed, to prevent any other type of chemical reactions.
Advantages: Do I need to spell this out???
I think I am going to walk this route.

Ok that is very cool. I bought a windscreen washer bottle from the old skyline, fits the opposite to ours and I use that. It looks real standard and fits perfect. Think I paid R50 for it or something.

Doc G, keep in mind we talking here about the windscreen washer bottle.
But yes, the radiator bottle is a difficult one. Toby bought the last one from Nissan factory.

Then somebody else on this forum posted a pic on a bottle from other car. Cant remember.

Yes it has the low level switch in it (I am not using it). The bottle is a bit small as it only holds about 2.5lt, so you have to fill it every week. It is from the R31 skyline I think thats what its called. It the skyline from like '88 looks kinda like Cressida.

I used a VW polo Ratiator bottle, just have to place it higher than the radiator (obviously).
