Did a manual conversion on a mates e30, then realised we didnt have a reservoir... so I told him to use that... and it works a treat. The fact he used a bright orange one and left the label on is just genius!

The use of the tip from a tube of silicon sealant as the nozzle for the hose to attach to is pure bodging genius!

no idea if it will last. Probably, cant see it getting hot enough to melt plastic in there.

I may suggest he moves it a bit further away from the rocker though, just in case.
