Gsi headlamp washer info

[Rad666]

look for some info on fitting the tank to the gsi.

Where about is it fitted? Pretty sure its the pass inner wing?

How it it filled up?

Does it have a level sensor for the mfd?

Pics of said tank off the car and fitted would be great also a pic of the filler cap?

The tank is where you said mate. The cap is only just a big bigger than a 2 pound coin in size. The tank as a long neck on it so thats all you can see from above. There is nothing to tell the mfd that it needs topping up, that feature is only on the screen wash tank

you can just see the washer bottle -

 

[Rad666]

thanks lads, where is the filler neck? Behind the strut top?

Think i can live without the mfdmessege, would be nice if i could fit a float switch tho.

[Rad666]

[Kev_mk3]

Is the arch liner the same on cars with and without the bottle ?

 

[Kev_mk3]

same i would of said

 

[Kev_mk3]

There is a small hole already but you need to drill it bigger.

Don't forget there is a relay behind the dash!

 

[Rad666]

spot on kev, my relay is in the box in the bay, will just be extending the wires from the washer bottle a think.
Need to get the van sorted so i can crack on

 

[Kev_mk3]

no worries i MAYBE able to get part numbers but put the thing back together now

[Rad666]
